New HHVM dropped PHP5 support, which included phpyaml.
Currently imports and exports are not possible, and site would likely go down if hhvm daemon was restarted.
Alternatives are:
- Downgrade hhvm (only postpones the issue, hard to find older versions)
- Switch to php (this is already planned, just no date set yet) T181208
- Get replacement yaml library installed for hhvm (which is tricky, I don't want to cause dirty diffs because changes in the output format)
