I would check the directory it's in; should be under php/extensions, I would think. I did find more info on building PHP on *nix; in order to compile dba support in, it looks like you need another switch: http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.dba.php try adding '--with-gdbm' (for example - it changes depending on exactly which database you are using).
