Thinking more about this, for the sake of simplicity of user code of GEOS, I'd 
rather suggest

geos.c.h:

#ifndef USE_ONLY_GEOS_R_API
Here go normal declarations (non XXXXX_r symbols)
#endif

Here go declarations of XXXXX_r  symbols

end of file

So user code would do

#define USE_ONLY_GEOS_R_API
#include <geos_c.h>

That way it would work with both newer GEOS versions and older ones without 
trying to figure out which GEOS version is included. Which requires including 
geos_c.h ....
