A bit off-topic, but what I meant by "own" is that a small group/team decides what goes in CSSU and what doesn't. Things like libssl updates a no-brainer of course.
Too bad that going above 0.9.8n breaks ABI compatibility. I would have thought that updates within a major/minor version wouldn't have done so, but apparently it might? Might just need to be tested after reading above... Throw libssl 0.9.8za into CSSU dev and have some folks test it out? If it doesn't blow up everything, push it into Testing and await bug reports... that's what Testing is for right?
Seems like an easier route than backporting all the patches to 0.9.8n if we don't really need to do so.
Edit: thought I would try it... so I compiled 0.9.8za and running it on my device now, and will test for a couple of days.
Edit2: no problems with HAM, Opera or MicroB.
