Replying to myself after an eureka moment : /usr/bin/erl_call is what
I was after. Dunno why I had forgotten about it. There used to be a
showstopper bug with hostnames, but I believe that's fixed. Here's an
easy way to run complex code in a remote node:

echo "$YOURCODEHERE" | erl_call -name $REMOTENODE -e
