I've had a strange scenario and did not found another explanation (and way to trigger) that a hash collision. md5 is fragile to it… memcached has a key length limit of 250 byte which still won't be hurt.

We use md5 in several other places, also on permanent basis. Perhaps I am only paranoid. For now just those changes, that can also go back easily.
