ipfw certainly does, called divert.  It's used by natd but is general
and usable by others instead or in addition to natd.

Netfilter/IPTables supports a target of QUEUE which delivers packets to

allow/drop packets in realtime.

Do any other firewalls have a similar function?  I am particularly
interested in ipFilter, ipfw, packetfilter, or PIX (I know PIX is highly
unlikely since it is more of a dedicated appliance).
