The problem is that 7.x makes *more*, and more significant, API/ABI
changes than 6.9.9. It's very likely some code will rebuild without
modification against 6.9.9 but not at all against 7.x. And landing
major updates with major behaviour changes in stable releases is just
flat out against the updates policy, even if you rebuild dependent
packages.
