yet it's not enabled by default, but via -x and -X option

keeping it separate package is burden for maintaining it (at least for me), 
i.e duplicating the initscripts and config, apparently need to do some extra 
work not to conflict with paths if memcached is installed to same host as 
well.

yet i'm not sure how evasive it is to the core usage, few if-statements in 
code really such a notable perforamance drop?

yet separate package allows you clearly distinguish is it upstream memcached 
or rep-cache patched memcached.

so far i added as bcond to memcached.spec as it's against my free will to 
duplicate code.
