You have a mess with openssl headers.
That's not PECL/memcache or PHP problem.

The following patch should fix the problem for Debian users:

Could you please tell me why Debian needs such workarounds?
It tried to compile the module with a lot of distribs (but not Debian)
and it worked fine for me without any weird defines.

I have no idea. I found this workaround somewhere on google. I'm not an
expert.

Debian woody is rather an old distribution (nevertheless it's stable as
a rock).
Maybe it's due to the older packages, but I have no idea.

Could please someone confirm this?
