Well, it didn't work. TB! connects to the port inetd is listening
on fine and the ssh program looks to get launched. The problem
appears to be that when inetd attaches the TB! connection to ssh
it connects to ssh's stdin rather than the tunnel port. This is
correct behavior on inetd's part.  So, it might be time for
custom code or, more likely, live with my current solution.

Thanks for y'all's input!
