Hmm, we removed support for RHEL 5 in PG 13, partially based on the 
information that ELS for RHEL 5 ends in November 2020.  It appears we 
have misinterpreted that and we can trim the trailing edge more

Anyway, this is only a documentation patch.  Surely no one will doing 
their very first install of Postgres on an unconfigured RHEL 6 this year.
