Hmm. That's interesting.  Thanks.  Here's a diff I ran on the two outputs.

Notice that the ipfilter script is in a different spot, but just barely. 
  Although I was trying to make something of the situation, I don't 
immediately see how it can make a big difference.  I was really trying 
to see if/how ipnat would stop working (at least immediately after 
reboot) until I flushed and reloaded ipnat.

Anyhow, I don't see what bearing any of this would have on ipnat 
mysteriously stop working for me.  The only thing I see is that I might 
have at some point started using interface renaming.

The only thing I can figure at this point by looking into this is that 
when I edited ipnat.rules, I used my renamed interfaces, just as I did 
in ipf.rules.  What I see in the rcorder outputs is that /etc/rc.d/netif 
comes after /etc/rc.d/ipnat.  In other words, perhaps my interface names 
in my ipnat.rules file is being loaded during bootup *before* those 
interface names exist!  If so, ipnat would act weirdly, perhaps.

One of the routines run by /etc/rc.d/netif on line 69 is

/etc/rc.d/ipfilter resync

which seems to resync ipfilter, but not ipnat.  What I see is that it 
seems like renaming interfaces *might* have broken ipnat.  And that 
might explain why I have to manually run
"/sbin/ipnat -CF -f /etc/ipnat.rules"
after every boot.

I think I will script this, and watch the output of ipnat -l.  As far as 
I know, ipnat was supposed to work fine with renamed interfaces, but 
maybe not.... dunno.
