Comment (by gdt):

 That symbol is in geos (3.5.0 anyway).   Are you using the same prefix
 pattern for 9.4, or do 9.4 and geos share a prefix?  This looks like a
 failure to set -L in the LDFLAGS of linking postgis.so (broadly; I realize
 the specific L, -rpath, etc. vary).

 Run ldd on postgis.so and see if it is finding all the shlibs, and in
 particular if it is finding the libgeos_c that you expect.

 (I have not tried with 9.5, but this looks like a postgis build issue, not
 a 9.5 issue to me.)
