Comment(by rransom):

 We ''will'' need to ship a NAT-punching tool in the Torouter after all --
 home Internet modems with built-in NAT functionality are far more common
 than I thought.  But I still think shipping 0.2.3.x is not going to be a
 good idea for the next few months, so we should consider splitting `tor-
 fw-helper` out of the Tor source tree and shipping it as a completely
 separate package.

 We may need to have a script (other than Tor) automatically select a good
 port for the Tor bridge, in case the user is running something else (e.g.
 Skype) that grabs port 443.  I think that also argues for using `tor-fw-
 helper` separately from Tor, even with 0.2.3.x.
