Peter,

I would suggest upgrading to the latest public GEOS distribution (or
disabling it using --without-geos if you aren't caring about GEOS support).

I'm not sure, but I suspect an older version of GEOS where things aren't
where they are expected to be.

You might also consider trying the GDAL 1.3.2b1 snapshot which I think
has better geos configuration logic.

best regards,
