I'm not sure that this is really true. As far as I know, `sss' in
Swiss German was handled similar to other triplet consonants before
the 1996 spelling reform. In other words, you would have written

  Abschlussatz (`closing sentence')

instead of

  Abschlusssatz ,

and which would have been hyphenated as

  Abschluss-satz
