I think that sentence implies they're using OpenSSH not that they're rolling their own? --Edit-- A quick glance at the repo suggests they're using NaCl to handle the encryption + the SSH server for auth

Well, NaCl is certainly an improvement over a completely NIH approach, but doesn't necessarily provide features like forward secrecy. It would certainly be nice if the ET authors would explain in their "how it works" page how they've solved problems like these. Forward secrecy over resumable channels is not a trivial problem for which the quality of solutions should be assumed.
