Never been in this spot before...

Need connectivity to a remote database, but port 3306 is blocked from  
remote machines (firewall). You can SSH tunnel your way around the  
firewall, so I'm giving that a stab in pure Perl. But this  
dependency / test failure tree is scary.   :)

Maybe I'll try stunnel while CPAN runs...  :)
