And also for quick security fixes.  They had a patch for sudo about 5 hours
after the recent bug was discovered.  It took a few days for a fixed .deb 
to make it to security.debian.org.  But maybe that's the difference between
an OS that's usually updated through source patches, and one that usually
uses precompiled binaries.

PS OpenSSH DOES go through the peer review/audit process.  And if you want
to disable DSA keys, well you can do that too, just read the manpage.
