Very possible.

They come from Ubuntu official packages, likely.

You should not pass GEOS objects between your program linked against
GEOS SVN and GDAL which uses older version of GEOS.
Both should use the same version of GEOS.

Solution:
1) Build GDAL with GEOS SVN if you want to use GEOS SVN in your program.
2) Link your program against GEOS of the same version used as GDAL uses.
If GDAL is installed from Ubuntu packages, then simply install GEOS
dev packages too and use it.
