When enabling RCFeed ( $wgRCFeeds ) and PHP doesn't have the php-sockets extension, if you save an edit, it gets saved but no entry is inserted in the recent changes table. It doesn't add a job to update it neither.
Hopefully the debug log displays this information (this happens with a udp URL at least):

MediaWiki should probably check for socket_create if $wgRCFeeds is set, and fail early (prevent the save at all), or catch the error, log it and continue without breaking all jobs that need to be inserted.
