Unless RHEL 6 is needed to get sufficient VM capability, as was said above would it not be cleaner to compile the entire release in a VM using fedora itself?
Last I heard, the builders were going to be changed to use a VM to fully encapsulate the build. Don't know what the timelines were on this. There was some talk of using libguestfs to upload and/or download files into the VMs which is why I heard about this.
The problem with using a VM created using the latest unstable Fedora is that the latest unstable Fedora might not be working. Perhaps we could always build Fedora n+1 on top of Fedora n.
