If we want to support Centos 7 (latest stable Centos release) we will

Side-note: "if" is a right word. Personally I would not hesitate to
drop support for dinosaurs leaving them with private build (and
private prices).
I want to have an answer what minimal changes (is -fabi... enough for
example) are needed to make it run on centos7. Next it will be possible
to decide should it make sense to use such solution or not. And this
should be first of all decided by those who can provide private services
mentioned by you - is it needed or not.
PS. Personally I would prefer not to build any public binaries (except
may be docker) at all. Most of open source projects go that way. But due
to well known historical reasons we have to leave with such binaries,
and if such packages ar released desire to support as much of distros as
possible appears reasonable.
