Keep in mind that we have a 32bit SIG for CentOS 7. So you should be
able to update if you want to.

With el6, arm was out of reach. It required too many code changes to
really call it 'CentOS' as an end product. CentOS 7 seems to (per the
beta and rc) require far less changes, so we'll be actively taking a
look at both v7 and v8 to see what's feasible.
