My site runs trunk with the WordPress Beta Tester and Memcached plugins. The site just updated to [27916] and I'm getting the ""No Update Required"" loop which prevents any access to the admin area. The `db_version` option in my database has been updated to the correct value (`27916`) but `get_option('db_version')` on any admin page returns a stale value (`26691`). Unlike #26173, the option has been updated with the correct value but the cache remains stale (instead of updating the option with a stale value). On `/wp-admin/upgrade.php` the object cache is suspended so the non-stale value is returned, which results in the ""No Update Required"" message." defect (bug) closed normal Upgrade/Install 3.9 critical invalid has-patch needs-testing
