Developing memcached, how should we do it?

Hi Trond,

libmemcached, the C driver, currently does support Dtrace (I added it  
when I added it to MySQL). It would be nice to see Sun do a bit more  
support of the autoconf tools for Dtrace. It would make it much easier  
to support Dtrace with most open source projects.

Cheers,
	-Brian
