ubuntu - php extensions question

I installed php during the ubuntu install process a few weeks ago. phpinfo says PHP Version 5.2.3-1ubuntu6.3:

Server API is Apache 2.0 Handler.

I have 2 questions: why doesn't phpinfo show the Configure Command (showing the compiled in modules)? Even though I didn't compile php myself, isn't this information available?

the other thing is, I added the xmlrpc php extension using the command:

sudo apt-get install xmlrpc

all went smoothly, and the file /usr/lib/php5/20060613+lfs/xmlrpc.so appeared but then the command

php -m

at the ubuntu command line shows xmlrpc as one of the modules: I thought php -m only showed compiled in modules, not shared object ones?
