I don't know for 1.3.3 but I think if it's really brocken there would
be a patch in the NetBSD-1.3.3/patches directory.
I used NAT on a 1.4 i386 box (don't forget the in_var.h patch :) without
problems (I'm using only the ftp proxy part now, which is causing me some
troubles, e.g. occasional kernel panics).
I didn't try the NetBSD-release sources on this box, although I will soon,
but I can't see why it would broke :)

on your 1.3.3, are you sure ip forwarding is enabled (options GATEWAY or
sysctl net.inet.ip.forwarding set to 1) ? Also, are you sure ipf is
enabled (ipfilter=YES in rc.conf) ?
