Please test CVS version, it supports multiple servers using this syntax:

$memcache->addServer($host2, $port2);

bool memcache_add_server( resource connection, string host [, int port [ bool persistent [, unsigned int weight [, int timeout [, int retry_interval ] ] ] ] ])
bool Memcache::addServer( string host [, int port [ bool persistent [, unsigned int weight [, int timeout [, int retry_interval ] ] ] ] ])

"server-down" information?

Characters like \t, \r, \n and ' ' are being replaced with '_' automatically.
I should probably add that to the docs.
