What is the reason for oneshot being better than forking in this case?
 I need to leave the tunnel process running so I would have thought
forking is a better fit.

In fact this has all become academic (though still interesting) as I
realised that actually I would be much better to move the process at
the other end of the tunnel into this server and then I don't need the
tunnel, and in fact it is better there for other reasons anyway.
