* New upstream release, primarily bugfixes, some of them critical, hence
  the urgency:
  - Reject keys larger than 250 bytes in the binary protocol.
  - Bounds checking on stats cachedump.
  - Binary protocol set+cas wasn't returning a new cas ID.
  - Binary quitq didn't actually close the connection
  - Slab boundary checking cleanup (bad logic in unreachable code)
  - Get hit memory optimizations
  - Disallow -t options that cause the server to not work
  - Killed off incomplete slab rebalance feature.
* debian/patches:
  - 01_init_script_compliant_with_LSB.patch: Remade as upstream applied a
    whitespace cleanup script that broke the patch.
  - 02_manpage_additions.patch: Added missing parameters to the memcached
    manpage.
* Removed TODO from debian/docs.
