I have no doubts that MediaWiki could be evolved rather quickly into a wiki engine that plays well in the enterprise, i.e. appeals to the corporate buyer.

It's not by Wikia, but http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Farmer is an extension which can be used to run multiple instances.
Personally, I've found symlinks are enough and special extensions aren't needed for this. See http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Wiki_family#Ultimate_minimalist_solution.
