You are right, but there notices in
http://postgis.refractions.net/documentation/manual-svn/postgis_installation.html#id2744974
GEOS geometry library, version 3.2.2 or greater, but GEOS 3.3.2+ is
recommended. Without GEOS 3.3, you will be missing some major
enhancements with handling of topological exceptions and improvements to
geometry validation and making geometries valid such as ST_ValidDetail
and ST_MakeValid. GEOS 3.3.2+ is also required for topology support.
GEOS is available for download fromhttp://trac.osgeo.org/geos/and 3.3+
is backward-compatible with older versions so fairly safe to upgrade.
GDAL, version 1.6 or higher (1.9 or higher is preferable since some
things will not work well with lower versions). This is needed for
raster support and will be required in final release of PostGIS
2.0.http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/DownloadSource.
I am no expert, but I am not sure it's good idea to deliver builds of
postgis in a sub-optimal config.

That would be amazing.
But, there is no ppa for geos 3.3 either and I am not sure about
gdal 1.9...
It might be a little early to have a ppa repo and dependencies
with unavailable packages....
My 2 cents.
Pretty sure I built PostGIS from source against GDAL 1.7 and GEOS
3.2.2 from the Oneiric standard repository.
Are there any critical functions that are inactive without the latest
and greatest versions of these libraries?
