Having huge problems getting memcached plugin working on ub 9.04

Question

Heya, so I've spent about 6 hours now trying to get this working. I had the following set of rules I uses to compile in the memcached plugin to php, installing libmemcached dependency first. Here are the steps:

cd ~  
sudo wget http://download.tangent.org/libmemcached-0.35.tar.gz  
sudo tar -zxf libmemcached-0.35.tar.gz  
cd libmemcached-0.35  
sudo ./configure  
sudo make  
sudo make install  
cd /usr/lib  
sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/libmemcached.so  
sudo pecl install memcached  
sudo rm -r ~/libmemcached-0.35  
sudo rm ~/libmemcached-0.35.tar.gz  
php.ini-edit  

Search for Dynamic Extensions and add in the extension memcached.so. Do this by adding: extension=”memcached.so”
:wq

It used to work; last time I rebuilt my box was back in Feb or March, but I've heard that since then there are some changes that go on. When I run sudo make above I get some erroring out. I'm not sure if I included the error anyone could help me debug, so does anyone have a set of instructions they used to get memcached working properly on their ub box? With the libmemcached dependency?

I've seen this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/683864/can-i-install-the-memcached-php-extension-with-pecl

The author of memcached basically told the guy how to do, but I've tried that to no avail. Help with be really appreciated. Thanks.
