Comment (by koyae):

 robe - I went back and tried doing `ldconfig` (by itself) as root from the
 GEOS directory before and after `./configure`, `make`, and `make install`
 of GEOS 3.5.0, and again between these steps as I built PostGIS itself. I
 still get the same error when I try `CREATE EXTENSION PostGIS;` in psql.
 To be sure the command wasn't hitting old dependencies that failed to be
 overwritten or removed, I also did `rm /usr/share/pgsql94/extension/*`
 before I retried.

 On the same system, the installation went smoothly with GEOS 3.4.2.

 PostGIS `configure` output:
