That was Sven's suggestion on IRC too, I will try it out later.

I'm sure there'll be one disappointed user still working on RHEL 6, but they 
have enough problems already.

Someone pointed me at https://appimage-builder.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
index.html , which removes the need for building on ancient distro releases 
altogether, but that's something to look at for 5.7 rather than a point 
release.
