Comment:

 As noted in #5743, our policy is not to break `help()` for everybody just
 because we're installed, so this had to be fixed. There's a full
 explanation in the earlier tickets (where people were playing "why is
 Malcolm so dumb he can't understand this" and using sock puppets to teach
 me the way forwards).

 Justin: I somewhat arbitrarily chose `RuntimeError` (the choices are
 `RuntimeError` and `ImportError`), but if you want to make a subclass of
 `GEOSException` and `RuntimeError` because you really want to be able to
 catch the former, go for it.
