I found it. It's because of JIT. If I request pcretest to use JIT, it matches:

$ printf '%s\n%s\n' '/[\x{0000}\x{200B}-\x{200D}\x{FEFF}]|\r?\n|\r/8W' 'test' | pcretest -s++
PCRE version 8.32 2012-11-30

From PHP side, also need to have jit enabled:

# php -n -d pcre.jit=1 -r "var_dump(PHP_VERSION, preg_replace('/[\\x{0000}\\x{200B}-\\x{200D}\\x{FEFF}]|\\r?\\n|\\r/u', '', 'test'));"
string(6) "7.0.10"
string(0) ""

# php -n -d pcre.jit=0 -r "var_dump(PHP_VERSION, preg_replace('/[\\x{0000}\\x{200B}-\\x{200D}\\x{FEFF}]|\\r?\\n|\\r/u', '', 'test'));"
string(6) "7.0.10"
string(4) "test"


BTW, our build (rh-php70) have pcre.jit=0 by default (original bug report was about a non-rh package)
