Ok. I for one am confused. You started by talking about using
ssh portforwarding, and so we all thought you needed encryption.
If you don't, you may be able to use something as simple as
rinetd, redir, or plug-gw.
Why don't you explain what actual machines, ports, and traffic
is involved in your senario so it's clearer?

Honestly, I don't know if OpenSSL supports 'none' encryption.
If you truely don't need encryption, using ssh, stunnel, or any
other encrypting software is only going to slow things down for
you.
