My best guess is that upstream is now 5.7 and bug fixes would be against 5.7, but since we're at 5.6 those fixes don't specifically apply, and so the cr is a temporary holding place for packages (and their dependencies) which would normally be in 5.7 but that need an earlier release (eg security). In this way cr is an attempt to provide timely security patches while the new release is still being prepared and validated.
