Geez, I missed that we killed static NAT too. Whats wrong with it? I know at least two users of this - did we ask or is posting on netdev == ask?
It's gone until someone fixes it up into working condition once more. It's been broken ever since the first bits of IPSEC dst cache infrastructure went in. The old code is in the source history if anyone wants to resurrect it and try to get it going again, but frankly my opinion is: 1) there are ways to do that with other technologies in the tree, hey even tc actions could do it (wink wink :-) 2) judging by the amount of complaints of it not working any- more (ie. nearly zero), I don't think it's worth spending time on it But have at it if you want :-)
