No there is only on php.ini on there located in /etc/php.ini, this is so
weird.

All I can think of is that you have more than one version of 
PHP installed, and it's looking in a non-standard place for 
the php.ini - possibly under /usr/php-version or 
/usr/local/php-version.

Try a file search on your system, and see how many php.ini 
files you can find there.

Eg.

[root at karsites ~]# locate php.ini

there's no shortage of them around here - but at least I 
know which one PHP is loading (I think!)
