[postgis-users] lwpostgis.sql and liblwgeom.so

I'm new to building postgresql and postgis, and have run into a problem that, from googles on the subject, may be the same or similar to what other people have run into when installing lwpostgis.sql:
==================================
psql:/usr/local/pgsql/share/lwpostgis2.sql:44: NOTICE: type "histogram2d" is not yet defined
DETAIL: Creating a shell type definition.
psql:/usr/local/pgsql/share/lwpostgis2.sql:44:
ERROR: could not load library
"/usr/local/pgsql/lib/liblwgeom.so"
: /usr/local/pgsql/lib/liblwgeom.so: undefined
symbol: GEOSTopologyPreserveSimplify
psql:/usr/local/pgsql/share/lwpostgis2.sql:50: ERROR: current transaction is ab
orted, commands ignored until end of transaction block
...
==================================
this is being done on a fedora system, I built postgresql and proj and geos and postgis from source. and ran the createlang plpgsql successfully
the other references to this problem suggest running ldconfig to repair the problem. I added /usr/local/pgsql/lib to the /etc/ld.so.conf and ran ldconfig; it's output shows
liblwgeom.so.1 -> liblwgeom.so.1.3
(while my error from lwpostgis.sql complains can't open liblwgeom.so. liblwgeom.so is also a symbolic link to the .1.3)
Is this really a problem linking with geos? ran ldd on liblwgeom.so:
=================================
ldconfig -v | grep geos
libgeos_c.so.1 -> libgeos_c.so.1.1.1
libgeos.so.2 -> libgeos.so.2.2.3
ldd /usr/local/pgsql/lib/liblwgeom.so
libgeos_c.so.1 => /usr/lib/libgeos_c.so.1 (0x00172000)
libproj.so.0 => /usr/lib/libproj.so.0 (0x0017f000)
libgeos.so.2 => /usr/lib/libgeos.so.2 (0x0030f000)
libstdc++.so.6 => /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6 (0x00414000)
=================================
anyway, I'm at a loss and any help would be appreciated.
thanks,
Robert H.
