The SSP is there to make it harder to exploit buffer overflows. As long as otpw doesn't have any bugs with bufferoverflows one doesn't need it at all. Ubuntu once decided to enable SSP by default and for most programs that's not a problem. However some do break, so one has to do it the "old fashioned" way without SSP.
