Try this: create a script called test.php and call it from your web browser:

<?php
    phpinfo();
?>

 From that you can get all the options that php is currently compiled 
with, to which you may add --enable-xslt, etc.

Not that you shouldn't read up on the other options-- you might find 
that you are currently using some unnecessary ones.
