I was assuming that warning wouldn't prevent user from being able to use mw
on old php, as Chad explained, in case that it would be impossible to use
it there, indeed it would be problem. I think that it should be possible to
create some alternative way to install mediawiki for those users (since it
affects only installation process). At least some light weight installer
which would only update db schema and generated config file.
