I'm using PHP/MySQL on Ubuntu Breezy for a development machine. I'm
not sure what packages are installed with the 'LAMP package', but the
packages provided by apt and the default Ubuntu repositories are
pretty up to date. I imagine that's probably what the package gets you.

Right now, I have the following:
Apache 2.0.55
PHP 5.1.2
Mysql 5.0.22

Postgres 8.1 is also available. I know more about MySQL, but I agree
pg is a very good package.

Most additional modules you may want to add to PHP are also available
as .deb packages. 'apt-cache search php' finds a pretty long list of
stuff. So, if you install PHP and are missing a module you really
want, it's probably out there already without the need to build from
source.
