Thinking...
The builders run RHEL 6, and use koji to install from the buildroots
there. Since they use the koji repos, they likely would have the old
metadata compression, so they'd still work. But there may be oppportunity
for breakage there that I'm not aware of.
mash would work, in as much as rawhide is composed in a rawhide mock
chroot.
The releases are composed on a release-ish install, so that would work
there, but we'd need to make sure the createrepo calls in pungi, etc. are
updated to match. But this would mean the release repos are different than
any random createrepo that is run by the a Fedora user. If we're OK with
that, we could do that.
