If anything, it'd be the 'extension' directive in php.ini, although this
still might not make any difference.

If I remember correctly, this still might not work, depending on how it
was compiled.

Run:

ldd /path/to/php/bin/php

and maybe you'll see libpq listed, in which case you'd need to
recompile.  Although, I could also be forgetting something.

And some more stuff:
