I had a quick go at this but get tramp errors.  I think you need a
terminal multiplexer e.g. tmux or screen.

In a terminal, connect using ssh (or mosh) then type 'tmux' to start a
new session or 'tmux attach' to attach to an existing one.

I would have thought that this should have worked, i.e. that the output
would have showed up in the terminal and in the buffer:

#+BEGIN_SRC sh  :prologue "tmux attach" :dir /myles@myhost.biz
echo $PWD
echo $HOSTNAME
#+END_SRC

Hope this is on the right track..

Myles
