Apache's with_mod_php_pear option was an error.
It made no sense. The PHP package's with_pear option is the correct one.

Yes, Apache's PHP should be able to use the PEAR stuff compiled
with the "php" package.

Because the PHP in Apache is running _inside_ the Apache process space
and is a very fast Apache-only solution. The PHP in the standalone
package is the slower but Apache-independent CLI version (usually also
needed for CGI scripts with #!/path/to/php shebang lines or if you have
to run Apache with PHP4 and PHP5 in parallel, etc).
