Description

See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Thread:Project:Support_desk/MediaWiki_v1.19.1_installation:_Compilation_failed:_support_for_\P,_\p,_and_\X_has_not_been_compiled

Basically the PCRE test in the installer only tests utf support, it doesn't test full unicode property support (which we use in the Parser). Just need to add a \P to envCheckPCRE in includes/installer/Installer.php

Version: 1.18.x
Severity: normal
