I read somewhere (thought it was here) that pigmen villagers have been added to the nether and function the same as "normal" villagers.
After a search on the forums (no topics have been made) and a ten minute stroll in the nether I still have no evidence to back up the claim. There aren't any eggs either, so I'm skeptical.
Is it true there are pigmen villagers in the nether in the latest build?
Nop. They do have a small change of spawning in the Overworld near a nether portal, though.

If I see further, it is by standing on the shoulders of giants.
Hey Jon, what about Giant Mobs, like the old giant, and the spider-for-screenshot Jeb made? They could be rare, like spider jockeys. Let's see the Golems fend off those =]
@Thoronwen I Freaken love your profile pic.
And on topic, this should be added, It would make me stay in the nether longer, then i can grow my nether warts.
I find I have a very disturbing fascination with torchering the regular villagers by setting up dispensers with villager spawn eggs inside of devices or glass cages with kill devices, or zombie dispensers. There is a "101 ways to ____ a villager" list I'm probably going to create some day at the rate I'm going. Anyways, I wonder about setting up a regular villager establishment within the nether to see how panicked they act. I'm now interested in visiting the nether later on today after work.
***Edit
I'm not the only sicko either. My friends usually cap off there wells with glass blocks or fill them with sand, destroy their crops and kill all their livestock. It's what we do since we are actually well adjusted in the real world.
Hmm, I never thought about this idea before, it'd definitely be cool. I like it! I just hope they can be in the over world too, maybe they could be traveling traders that sell exotic nether items and materials.

Hmmm, maybe they could sell GLOWSTONE and other things that the regular villagers shouldn't be trading us. >_>

I don't see why villagers shouldn't have glowstone and such. The NPC's are just as capable of building a portal as Steve is, AND they can enchant things without using XP or an enchantment table. Not only that, but they posses an infinite supply of the rarest ore in the entire world. Why wouldn't they be able to get to the nether?

Maybe they could look like this? (but with normal pigmen, obviously)
This would be really really magic *-*
But not necessarily normal pigmen. Zombie Pigmen are the Pigmen form nether, and NPC Villages were intended to be populated with Pigman. So, we have two options for the townspeople: or Zombie Pigman, or ZOMBIE VERSIONS OF VILLAGERS *----*

And besides that they also have a red dragon and fish mobs planned
this would be super cool!

They don't spawn near portals...
Zombie pigmen spawn in the overworld when pigs get struck by lightning.
In the newest snapshot,Random and rare Nether portal spawn anywhere and by there,random zombie pigman spawn.
I don't think Nether portals can spawn on their own, but the zombie Pigman thing is true.
