Comment (by jorbin):

 PHPunit 7 only support 7.1+ which is what
 [https://wordpress.org/about/stats/ less than 7% of all WordPress
 installs] use. We can't only run our tests on versions of PHP that so few
 users use, so whatever we need to do to support it needs to be done in a
 way that is backwards compatible to PHPUnit 3.6 (the last version that
 supported 5.2).

 A glance at the change in https://github.com/Ayesh/wordpress-
 develop/commit/23a4b2daa823ecc6b9979815b735c9c95f223a01 seems like it
 would be fine to do. Do you know what we would need to do for
 WP_PHPUnit_Util_Getopt ?
