I believe they have said (unofficially) they will do that for LLVM and

security-related things like OpenSSL and OpenSSH they do need to be able
to incorporate and release updates quickly, which would be a lot easier
if they stayed up-to-date and had continuous builds running so
everything was already ready-to-go when a critical fix comes along.

 OpenSSH is kind of a special case since it was not too long ago they
they, with great fanfare, stripped out a lot of code from their
distribution including the VMS support.

I don't think there was any long-standing VMS support in OpenSSH.  Maybe
you are thinking of LibreSSL, which jettisoned a lot of things,
including anything VMS-specific, when it forked from OpenSSL.
