As long as we need to keep the current box running any part of
libvirt.org, that looks like it would only increase complexity.

The lxc route sounds like a decent stop-gap measure until either
the current box is upgraded or everything is moved off to a new
box running CentOS 7, whenever that might be.

Either way it seems pretty clear that we're not going to take
back making GnuTLS mandatory (neither I think we should), so the
CI job running on CentOS 6 is entirely useless now. I'll post
patches to get rid of it.
