Thanks for the quick response. I will also await feedback from Carlos about this workaround as well.
For the time being, I would suggest setting it explicitly for calls to *memcache.Client().cas()* to workaround this known issue and use memcache to your advantage. Know that we are aware of this issue and working towards its root cause. The aforementioned suggestion is the recommended workaround.
