on unix:
% cat .ssh/config
Host xxx
ProtocolKeepAlives 30
ProxyCommand /path/to/proxytunnel/proxytunnel -p proxyhost:proxyport
-P proxyuser:proxypass -d xxx.org

% ssh -D localproxyport
-Llocaladdress:localport:sources.cs.bell-labs.com:564 user@xxx.org


on Plan 9:
% srv -nq tcp!localaddress!localport sources /n/sources


and there you have it. only tested it for non-authenticated connections.
