Please bump to dev-php5/pecl-memcache-3.0.6 (out as of 2011-04-11). Just to note, copying 3.0.5-r2 to 3.0.6 compiles and installs fine on amd64 arch minus the problem with an eclass in bug 379127. Reproducible: Always
I am not bumping the 3.x branch until upstream has marked it stable. We have already received angry emails about how we shoud not have added to portage in the first place.

There are plenty of packages in portage that are not stable and perhaps never will be. Obviously the key here is to not stabilize these packages until upstream stabilizes but I don't see a reason why they can't exist in portage. If the stability of this package is extremely in question, why not remove the 3.x ebuilds entirely? I just write a php project and I tested extensively with 3.0.5 and 3.0.6 and I didn't run into any show stopping issues other than the fact that if you restart the memcache daemon, you must also restart apache because it appears the pecl extension keeps memcache connections open even if the memcache server restarts creating weird conditions where you sometimes can't set keys on the memcache server through php on apache.
Sure. I'll see if I can bump it within the next few days.
In CVS now. Thanks for all :)
