Comment (by dcf):

 I was manually testing [https://packages.debian.org/jessie/miniupnpc
 miniupnpc] and [https://packages.debian.org/jessie/natpmp-utils natpmp-
 utils], which use the same libraries that tor-fw-helper does and have
 Debian packages. I used a natpmpc command from the [http://dev.man-
 online.org/man1/natpmpc/ man page] and it segfaulted :(
 {{{
 $ natpmpc -a 50000 50000 tcp
 Segmentation fault
 }}}
 Anyone else interested in testing those libraries, here are some commands
 to try.

 miniupnpc:
 {{{
 external-ip                             # uses UPnP to find external IP.
 upnpc -a <your-lan-ip> 50000 50000 tcp  # adds a port forwarding
 upnpc -l                                # lists port forwardings
 upnpc -d 50000 tcp                      # deletes port forwarding
 }}}

 natpmp-utils:
 {{{
 natpmpc                                 # external IP
 natpmpc -a 50000 50000 tcp              # adds a port forwarding
 natpmpc -a 50000 50000 tcp 0            # deletes port forwarding
 }}}
