Doesn't anyone have a list of the oldest
kernel version for each Centos version  you could be running and still
avoid known problems?

The best answer to your question is "the latest version", since previous versions all have known issues of one kind or another.

It's not a great idea to run outdated Centos systems with known bugs of any kind.

I can't argue with that (then again, you were running that buggy code
before and happy with it), but having to reboot frequently is not
ideal either, particularly on machines where scheduling downtime is a
fairly involved process.   I'm looking for the compromise with the
least pain involved.

Hi Les,

https://access.redhat.com/labs/leapsecond/leap_vulnerability.sh
If you don't have a subscription then the key bits from the script are:
# RHEL 4 needs to be after -89
# RHEL 5 needs to be after -164
# RHEL 6 Affected Versions
# 6 GA: All Versions
# 6.1: Versions before -131.30.2
# 6.2: Versions before -220.25.1
# 6.3: Versions before -279.5.2

and that the tzdata should be from 2015
