Comment(by strk):

 The problem is your linker trying to use the geos lib in /usr/lib rather
 than the one in /usr/local/lib. Maybe try swapping -L lines in this call:
 {{{
 gcc -g -O2  -fPIC -DPIC  -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -I../../rt_core
 -I/home/mwtoews/postgis-2.0.0beta2SVN/liblwgeom  -I/usr/include/gdal
 -I/usr/local/include -o testapi testapi.c ../../rt_core/librtcore.a
 /home/mwtoews/postgis-2.0.0beta2SVN/liblwgeom/.libs/liblwgeom.a -L/usr/lib
 -lgdal1.7.0 -L/usr/local/lib -lgeos_c -lm
 }}}

 That is, move the "-L/usr/lib -lgdal1.7.0" after "-L/usr/local/lib
 -lgeos_c"

 Also consider dropping the old geos in /usr/lib or at least the
 libgeos_c.so from /usr/lib (the new libgeos_c.so in /usr/local/lib would
 work just fine with _any_ client code)
