Description:
------------
False as Return Value breaks storing vars with value "false"

If i want to save an value "false" into memcache, everything is fine.
If i want this value back(specified by id), an problem occurs:

false is also the returnvalue for Memcache::get, so i can't get the value because if I check for an false value, i can't differ if it is the value of my memcache id or a failure within memcache(FALSE on failure or if such key was not found.)
I would suggest to use failure codes for not in cache and for failure (eg -1 or -2 ).
But this will break BC..
