https://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bug%3F?action=history doesn't show the history page, unlike https://test.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Bug%3F&action=history. From what I know about URL structure and MediaWiki, they should act the same. Do we have broken routing / rewrite rules or something?

Well the description is a little convoluted, but what I'm seeing is that the title of his test page is literally Bug%3F, where %3F is the ascii hex for ?. For a normal article name /wiki/Foo?action=history actually works*, but the presence of %3F at the end of the title breaks ?action=history. A better set of example URLs (to me anyways) is:
https://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bug%3F?x=y&action=history - works
https://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bug%3F?action=history - borked, shows article content instead of history
* - (although it's debatable whether it should - shouldn't we have one canonical action=history URL, and isn't it usually the ?title= form? but that's a side issue)

I noticed another related bug while testing this, based on this example
If you change the question mark to an ampersand, you'll get the correct page, but the page title is incorrect: https://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bug%3F&action=history will show the title Bug?&action=history.

I can't reproduce this problem any more. I assume this was fixed by migrating to PHP 7 (T176370).
