OK, I answered my own question. After researching on php.net, I determined that the php.ini should
have been in /usr/local/lib, but was missing, presumably because whoever did the install skipped the
step of copying php.ini-dist to /usr/local/lib/php.ini.
I downloaded a source .tar, extracted it, found php.ini-dist, copied it to /usr/local/lib/php.ini,
restarted Apache, and I'm in business. So, PHP was using default values in lieu of a php.ini
file.
