Multiple things, possibly. What OS and how did you install PHP and PG?

I'll venture a guess that you somehow installed PHP and/or PG with
whatever system installer your disro uses (yum? apt?...) and it ended up
wherever that distro specifies. Then you compiled some stuff from source
and it ended up in the "normal" locations defined by the source/makefile
defaults and you have ended up with two or more versions (5.0.4/5.2.8)
of PHP. You could even end up with Apache seeing one version and PHP
command-line seeing a different one. Once you sort that out, be sure to
enable PG in php.ini.
