Additional detail:
 - generating 2.6 pins for global requirements requires access to 2.6
where the periodic job runs *and where devs are generating updates*.
 - so that means docker or lxc or something in both the CI system and
widely available for devs.

So its a non-trivial impact; we can do it to move things forward, but
it would be a lot cheaper not to.
