According to the git logs, Mat removed it cause it's not used and is
deprecated in C++11

    Remove GeometryList class

    It is completely unused in GEOS and becomes deprecated in C++11.
    Use std::vector<Geometry::Ptr> instead.


So I think that fits under our NEWS item 

  - Use C++11 unique_ptr, nullptr, and override constructs
