This seem to have been fixed and backported. I'll reopen if I see it happens once I have promoted group 1 wikis to MW-1.46-notes (1.46.0-wmf.14; 2026-02-03)

Thanks, sounds good.

One issue we had here was that the above error couldn't be found in logstash, because it's a PHP parsing error (or maybe parsing is the wrong term, but it's not an exception thrown during execution).
