I used RedHat for years, and compiling new versions of PHP was
really
easy because phpinfo() displayed ./configure options stored by php
build
my next tip: on the commandline you can use
php -i
to print the ./configure options with which this current version was built. ./configure options are printed in the very first lines.
I don't think that Ubuntu / Debian will display it there, because it's been stripped out from phpinfo() data by their custom build script. I don't use Ubuntu LTS anymore, only Fedora and CentOS, so I cannot check right now. Dmitriy
