I see EL is a family of OS-es (hence why I say EL
rather than a specific distro name), including
CentOS, Scientific Linux, RedSleeve, and of course
their upstream RHEL.

It really comes down to whether there is willingness
to update the vserver-util packages to include this
stuff. I can probably manage to keep patched EL6 yum
reasonably up to date (on demand, mostly), at least
for the foreseeable future, but including EL6 support
in the build package is mostly just a one-off that
I think would be quite handy to have upstream.
