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
