Actually, BGP can go through NAT. One of our engineers did it in our lab.
It was through a Cisco PIX firewall. The neighbor statement on the outside
was to a NAT'd address on the inside. BGP uses tcp/ip for it's neighbor
establishment. So all you would need is a static translation and a rule to
allow it to pass.
