Sounds good to me. 
As you can see the SONAME for libgeos_c.o hasn't changed (libgeos_c.so.1)
while the one for libgeos is (libgeos-3.1.0.so vs libgeos-3.2.0.so).

What I expect is that if you compile a couple simple test program
one with -lgeos and the other with -lgeos_c while only 3.1 is
installed, then when you install 3.2 the one compiled with -lgeos_c
will automatically use functionalities of libgeos-3.2.0.so while
the other will be strictly bound to libgeos-3.1.0.so.

Can you confirm ?
