Is there any EL7 rpm or other successful build of a recent stable

Several of abiword's buildrequires are not in the various EL7 repos.
There aren't very many of them; in attempting to rebuild the FC22
Abiword and attempting to install the buildreqs I get:
No package aiksaurus-devel available.
No package aiksaurus-gtk-devel available.
No package gtkmathview-devel available.
No package link-grammar-devel available.
No package loudmouth-devel available.
No package ots-devel available.
No package wv-devel available.
Not sure how difficult that will be to get those packages (and the
packages the -devel packages depend upon) built. I have a client who
is waiting on a CentOS 7-compatible Abiword to migrate to CentOS 7
from CentOS 6, and Abiword is a blocker.
Has there been a request for an EPEL7 branch?
