Sounds like you need something that isolates the "Jenkins Slave"
functionality from your build environment. I see these solutions:
A new machine with the Jenkins Slave that does SSH to your CentOS 5
build environment in the build step.
Put your CentOS 5 build environment in a Docker container and use one of
these plugins:
* Docker Slaves: This plugin is marked as experimental and has not seen
any updates this year. It works with some kinks. E.g. There is no limit
on how many nodes it can start at once when using pipeline. This
dynamically provisions a full slave for each build.
* Cloudbees Docker Custom Build Environment plugin. This plugin has not
seen any updates for a couple of years, but a new maintainer is getting
started now. This plugin attaches on an existing slave and uses the
Jenkins Slave mechanisms for scheduling. It lacks pipeline support and
does not work if the slave itself is running as a Docker container.
