Before you set your route to TheServer through the remote
address of your ppp-link, you can use ipfw fwd rule to
selectively route ssh traffic through its original gateway:
ipfw add ${num} fwd ${gateway} to ${TheServer} 22
But if it's for your own use to access TheServer from your
laptop securely as you imply in your mail, I see no reason
not to access TheServer with its ppp-link address. To me it
seems more explicit and it will also prevent you from
accidentaly accessing TheServer insecurely. You can even
give it a name (preferably a diffrent name to distinguish it
from the one using insecure route) in /etc/hosts if you
want...
YMMV, of course.
