I couldn't find any mention on a y program doing a quick google search 
and there doesn't seem to be one installed on my Solaris machine or a 
newer install of RH.

Thanks for that but what I really want is one process I can nohup. 
Something like:

$ nohup cmd 1| prog1 2|prog2 &

 From what everyone has suggested it doesn't look like that is going to 
be possible though.

The best I've gotten is this recommendation from Steve Smith but it 
doesn't seem to lend itself to being nohup'ed ...

$(cmd | prog1) |& prog2
