Subject:    Where is the NAT rewriting /really/ done?

I've looked at the ipt_REDIRECT.c code but I fail to see where the packets
destination really is changed.  

All I see is a call to ip_nat_setup_info(), which in turn sets up entries
in some connection tracking tables describing the connection affected and
how it is to be address translated...

Could someone please enlighten me?

Code is much like elephant dung.  The more code, the more bugs.
You have to let it rest a while to make sure that the bugs are gone (and large
heaps rot slowly).
