Isn't it the other way around? You couldn't have a tinderbox building
for 7.0 running on a 6.2 host, but its common practise to have tinderbox
build 6.2 packages whilst running on 7.0 host.
It's never supported to run newer userland on older kernel
(see archive on current@ few days ago from me).
In fact, after recent thread library changes in current, you
can not run 7.0 userland on a 6.2 kernel.
