Hi Chriss,
I'm the maintainer of memcached on Fedora and RHEL,

I can not. The testsuite on Fedora does not hang. I remember a
situation similar to this. When i first enabled tls in Fedoras memcached
the testsuite hanged because test certificates had short key and
Fedora has hardened crypto environment, thus memcached crashed
during testing and suite was not prepared for that.

I can show you a test log from Fedora Rawhide where we have 1.6.7.
https://tkorbar.fedorapeople.org/test.log

I will try to install debian VM and reproduce this.

Yeah, i know that the suite is not ideal but i did not yet get to
handle that. It is stable on normal build machines
but if you run it on some powerful server CPU then techniques
like "sleep(0.5)" starts to fail. I will keep in mind to fix this.
