Given how Trixie has raised the minimum CPU level for some architectures (e.g. on i386, minimum Pentium 4 due to Rust now requiring SSE2), it would be desirable for OpenSSH to be backported to at least Bookworm, preferably also to Bullseye, so that hosts running on deprecated CPUs can remain reachable using post-quantum crypto for the remainder of their LTS support timespan.
