For those of you on Ubuntu or other flavors of Debian, the guide at [0] wil pretty much walk you through it pain-free. One little gotcha: you need a libmemcached of at least 0.39, and the latest version in 10.04 and below is 0.31, so you'll either need to do a manual build, grab it from the newer repo, or go ahead and bite the bullet and upgrade. Oh, and run make from a screen and walk away for awhile, it's not the fastest build ever.
I saw that there are RPMs for CentOS, so I installed CentOS inside a chroot inside Ubuntu 10.10 x86-64. Surprisingly, this was quite easy. I put some notes at:

Of course, the downside is that you then have to work inside a chroot. It's probably tolerable if you use the bind mount for /home that schroot provides by default to store your files.
