Have you checked out these threads?

Basically, I tried to package this more than a year ago and was
basically not able to finish.  So, unless the legal issues have been
resolved, this package will likely not be possible.  The root of the
problem is that the GPL is not compatible with the PHP license.  There
is no way around it, other than a clean rewrite of eacclerator by people
who have not seen the mmchache-derived code.
