Comment:

 Alternative caches should be using object-cache.php thus avoiding
 cache.php being loaded at all.

 The Memcached and APC backends maintained by mysql and Mark do have the
 same public interfaces as core. Direct access through $wp_object_cache is
 not public, but we generally try to keep that API in sync too.  If there
 are bugs here, let's fix them in memcached and apc.
