Maru Newby (maru) wrote : Memcache token backend does not expire tokens

Using python-memcached, memcache get() calls do not appear to respect the expiry time submitted to set(). The memcache token backend appears to assume that keys will not be returned after the expiry passed to set, so token life is unlimited when using this backend.

Note that fake memcache client in test_backend_memcache honours the expiry provided to set(), so this bug is effectively masked in testing.
