I've tried getting this to work, to no avail, and I posted here asking if
anyone else has, without response (there was a tangent, but no answers).

The problem is that Emacs does not detach the ssh process, which means that
it waits for the process to finish before continuing on with the POP
connection, by which time the SSH tunnel has been closed.  :prescript needs 
to be able to be asychronous for this to work.
