 I use libssh2_channel_forward_listen_ex to implement the function of 'ssh
 -L <localport>:<host>:<host_port>'. however,
 libssh2_channel_forward_listen_ex stuck.
 The code is based on this example
 [http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1580750/example-code-of-libssh2-being-
 used-for-port-forwarding], like this:

 {{{
   // initialize ssh connection

   int other_port = 0;
   LIBSSH2_LISTENER * fwd = libssh2_channel_forward_listen_ex(session,
 "127.0.0.1", 3128, &other_port, 1);
   printf("Remote forwding port: %d\n", other_port);

   channel = libssh2_channel_forward_accept(fwd);

   // pipe between localport and channel

 }}}
