PMTU and NAT-Traversal problem



Hi all,
Is there anybody who implemented  following  in a security Gateway?
1. draft-ietf-ipsec-nat-t-ike-01.txt   and  draft-ietf-ipsec-udp-encaps-01.txt
2. Section 6 [ PMTU processing by IPSEC] of IPSec RFC (2401).
if so, how did you solve following problem?.........

For Unauthenticated ICMP PMTU message processing:

The PMTU processing  bound to fail, since ICMP PMTU error message would 
include
only IP Hdr and 64 bits of IPsec Hdr information. Since UDP Encaps and NAT 
Traversal drafts encapsulate ipsec packets in UDP and put a 8 byte NON IKE 
marker,(totalling 16 bytes)
PMTU error message returned will not have enough information to find the 
SA's at the receiving
Security Gateway. How to solve this problem? any suggestions?
any help in this regard is highly appreciated.
Thanks
Lokesh
