I understand the openssh code implements TCP-over-TCP for its tunnel 
support. You might look at that. There are even patches to make it drop 
the compression so there's no performance overhead.

With Ogg, I think oggz is your best bet for a sane library, but you're 
correct it's more a library-for-writing-muxers than a muxer library.
