Don't worry, it's still us :)
The postgis_geos_version.h file is automatically generated
looking at version of installed geos. In case you have more
then one geos installed the ./configure --with-geos flag
can be used to specify which one to use.
Since the ./configure output you showed contains a GEOS = 
line, you should check the geos_version.sh script, which
seems to be failing. The script goes:

version=`${geos_dir}/bin/geos-config --version`
if [ "$version" = "@GEOS_VERSION@" ]; then
        geos_version=100
else 
	...
fi

so, in your case it seems that the first line 
somehow failed. You could inspect what went wrong
by running:

	sh -x geos_version.sh <geosdir>

Feel free to send output here.
