Interesting puzzle.  That was my thought, too, Dave, but I'm having
trouble seeing why there should be a routing problem as it is.  The
hop will be all the way out (at least) to his ISP's router, but I'm
not sure I see why this is causing a problem, except for the obvious
performance hit.  The NAT setup will just cause the router to think
that his client is trying to connect back to port 80 on itself, which 
it should happily do.

Where's the rub?
