Commit summary for MediaWiki.r108145:

(bug 33321. Sort of) Adding a line to MediaWiki:Sidebar that contains a pipe, 
but doesn't
have any pipes after being transformed by MessageCache, causes exception on
all pages.

This can happen with lines like:
**{{#if:yes|Something}}

Thank you to liangent for figuring out how to escape a | without {{!}} existing 
and | not working.

Tagging 1.18. Its very easy for a user to totally screw up their wiki in a way 
thats difficult to revert (aka need to use maintinance script or api to revert 
a bad edit to sidebar that triggers this bug).
