Sorry, I didn't know that, within a series, no patch is allowed to add build warning
that are then fixed by the following ones. I did it for the purpose of splitting
different logical changes into different patches and the removal of code
related to NAT25_LOOKUP (2/3) introduced some warnings about a function
and a variable that were not anymore used. Patch 3/3 had the changes that
removed the above-mentioned no more used objects. 

According to your request, now I've merged 2/3 and 3/3 into a single v3 patch. 
I had to drop the numbering of the patch because neither 2/3 or 2/2 seemed 
appropriate to me after the merge. I hope it was the right thing to do. If not,
let me know, please.
