Where do I get the rpm or source to build support for xfs?

You might be surprised.
XFS support is an extra for RHEL6; you need to add a channel (there's a fee
IIRC). As others have remarked, it is the default for RHEL7.
However, at least on x86_64, the kernel supports the filesystem. You only need
to obtain the xfsprogs to create a filesystem.
You can hand install the CentOS rpm if necessary. I'd pay the $s myself, but my
management is a little weird about expenses.
Disclaimer: I'm not running any 32 bit RHEL systems.

I'm not weird; I'm gifted.
