Chris, 

You were right. It's a Debian bug.

The following library cannot coexist on the system :

/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/numpy/core/multiarray.so

/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/Numeric/multiarray.so

When they are both present, I get the GEOS exception.

I'll report this to the Debian BTS.
