Description:
------------
A backreference to a branch reset group works as expected in PHP 5 but not in PHP 7.

Test script:
---------------
<?php

$string = '--';

$doesNotMatchInPhp7 = '/(?|(---)|(-))\1$/';
$matchesInPhp7 = '/(?|(-)|(---))\1$/';

var_dump(preg_match($doesNotMatchInPhp7, $string));
var_dump(preg_match($matchesInPhp7, $string));

Works without JIT. https://3v4l.org/7dAic

Upstream bug?

Looks like this got fixed in PHP 7.3 due to the update to PCRE2.

It looks like there also was a new PCRE1 release recently, but I'm not seeing this issue in the changelog.

Indeed, works as expected with/without PCRE.JIT as of PHP 7.3.0,
so this ticket can be closed.
