Um, you shoot yourself in the foot - if a simple NAT router, with a
limited amount of code, has "troubles" then a complex amount of code like
the Windows XP SP2 firewall would be subject to "troubles" too.

I've been using firewalls (appliances) for years and have never seen them
"leak", and every one of them uses NAT as part of their routing methods.
