[dev] Querying memcache PECL extension version?

[Kevin M. Myer]

Anyone know if there is a way to extract the version of the memcache 
PECL extension that is installed on a system, programmatically?  With 
the 1/11 commit to the memcached sessionhandler (to handle pooled 
connections, which requires memcache 2.0 or higher), things are 
completly broken and fail completely silently (white screen, absolutely 
nothing logged anywhere) for me.  I suspect that its because I'm using 
the 1.X version of the PECL extension.  I'd like to either 
programmatically detect that, and modify function calls accordingly, or 
we just state in the documention somewhere that version 2.0 or higher 
is required.
