Do you mean the path as specified in /etc/ld.so.conf?

If you /usr/local/apache2/bin/apache -v it will get 2.0.52.  It's either
because /usr/local/apache2/bin isn't in your path or it appears after
/usr/bin in the path variable so 2.0.49 gets picked up first.

Someone has asked almost the same question here.
