FYI, recently, OGR has been ported to GEOS C API, so GEOS >= 2.2.0
version is required.

Please, try to pass complete path to geos-config in
--with-geos=/path/to/geos-config
instead of giving simple yes.

Maybe ./configure is finding old geos-config somewhere in your filesystem.

I'm building GDAL a few times a day and it works.

If full path to geos-config won't help, please give me a note
because I'm supposed to fix this bug ;-) as I ported OGR to GEOS C API.

cheers
