Seems safe since we only stop saying the module is supporting this OS.

I think this is OK. I guess it is intentional that RHEL 6 stays since that's not EOL. Is that correct?

Due to certain issues in the background we can no longer reliably test CentOS 6, so we cannot guarantee continued support, but it will likely remain compatible as we have not made any changes to the code.
RHEL 6 has similar issues and status. Once RHEL 6 reaches EOL, we will discuss whether or not code paths supporting it need to be removed and communicate this decision and timeline either way.

I'm very well aware of the CentOS 6 issues and I'm surprised it took you this long.

And you're completely right that my underlying question was: how much can we drop. Looking at the code it suggests RHEL 6 and SLES 11 are the last Apache 2.2 systems and cleaning that up will massively simplify the codebase.
