How was postgresql installed on the machine in the first place?  RPM?
DEB?  Just guessing by the pg_config output, I'd say postgresql was
installed on the server via some package management and you also have a
separately compiled source tree?  If you installed from package
management, there usually is a contrib package which contains
pg_buffercache as well as the other normal contrib modules.
