That depends on the NAT implementation, Many:1 udp/tcp NAT will definitely
break GRE due to it rewriting a 16 bit source port offset which doesn't
exist for GRE. 

It would IIRC have to rewrite the GRE 'Caller ID' ( ? my terminology may be
incorrect) to track multiple sessions. 


1:1 static NAT will work to a single destination for PPTP.
