Hey Bill,

Sorry to hear that.  Am I correct in assuming that you have multiple 
versions of GEOS in your system?  If so, you might want to make sure the 
headers and library symlinks are correct for the particular version 
you're linking to.  In particular, is libgeos_c.so symlinked to 
/usr/local/geos-3.0.0rc4/lib/libgeos_c.so.1.x.x?  Is 
/usr/local/geos-3.0.0rc4/lib in your library path (in /etc/ld.so.conf)?  
You can check with "ldconfig -v | grep geos".  You can also define 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH to include /usr/local/geos-3.0.0rc4, if this path isn't 
defined anywhere.

That's all I can think of right now.  I hope it helps.
