Where can I find out when apache.org
will be bundling the latest version of OpenSSL with apache? PCI compliance
calls for using level "u" as of today.

Just as on unix, you can never drop in a x.y.n change with a new x value.
That's called a major bump and usually does not work.
OP could obtain a 0.9.8X flavor later than 0.9.8t and aught to be fine
so long
as no special build options were changed, and it was built to run against
msvcrt.dll (the *system* c library). It's the same quandry as on
Ubuntu with
glibc vs eglibc packages.
If OP reviewed the patch release notes, they would be aware that an upgrade
is unnecessary between 0.9.8t and 0.9.8w for anyone running httpd 2.2.
The
new features in httpd 2.4 were vulnerable to issues there, however.
