No SCL repo for 6.8, breaks yum if centos-release-SCL is installed

I see the yum repo symlink for 6 on the mirrors is flipping over from 6.7 to 6.8, but there is no SCL repo for 6.8. So this causes yum to break for anyone that has centos-release-SCL package installed from 6.7 extras.
Future-wise, either SCL needs to be rebuilt before flipping the symlink, or at least populated with a valid but empty repomd.xml. Or maybe the SCL repos should not be under the minor-number trees at all. Maybe they should just be at the major-version level.
