Could you be more explicit as to which NAT devices support this evasion technique?
All NAT/PAT devices I am familiar with are either complete TCP proxies, in which case they verify the checksum coming in, and then re-calculate it as it goes out, or they only implement the "quick-update" algorithm (RFC 1624 et alia). In the first case, your evil packets get dropped at the first NAT, in the second case, they always have an incorrect checksum.
