I'm breaking ABI and the API here... the flush commands had been  
bugging me for a while, so I fixed them to be more inline with how I'd  
like to see things.

/* Flushes all keys on a given server */
int	mc_flush(struct memcache *mc, struct memcache_server *ms);

/* Flushes all keys on all servers */
int	mc_flush_all(struct memcache *mc);

I'm going to bump the library version to 1.2 to denote this change.  I  
don't think it'll bite too many people, but if it does, they'll  
probably be happy with the resulting change.  I also renamed  
mc[m]?_deactivate_server*() to mc[m]?_server_deactivate*().

I'm not too terribly happy about the API breakage, but I think it's  
worth doing now as opposed to later.  I bumped the library version,  
however.  If there are any comments/concerns, please let me know.  I  
could keep a shim in there for source code compatibility, but haven't  
so far.
