It will overwrite it if it's being installed to the same location. Find
the PHP binary on your system:
$ which php
and run
$ php -i | grep -i configure
To see what options the currently running version was compiled with.
If they are suitable for you stuff them into a text file:
$ php -i | grep configure | tr -d "'" | tr -s " " "\n" | \
? grep -e '^--' > php_config.txt
Download and untar php then run configure.
$./configure `cat php_config.txt | tr -s "\n" " "`
