Yes, that is what I was thinking. Technically, 6 CDs, if you count the 
full-nosrc versions.

Perhaps. I've thought of this, but I'm not sure what the answer is. It 
is based on what is essentially 6.3, although you're right that 6.3 
won't have a x86_64 section. Change it to 7.0? And just keep releasing 
pre CDs until 7.0 is ready?

My biggest incentive for merging the x86_64 stuff now is that it makes 
it easier to work on all the versions.

I didn't realize that it was mentioned. I can leave the dual kernel 
setup for x86. I just have to re-adjust the minimal branch.
