I'm in a similar situation at work.  My "solution" is an ugly one, but
works. Attached is the script I use to accomplish it.

It installs an iptables rule to redirect outgoing port 80 to
cvs.fedora.redhat.com to localhost 8081, sets up an ssh tunnel, executes
the command, kills the tunnel and removes the rule.  I said it was ugly,
but it gets the job done.
