Alright did a test run of the build.

I installed the dev packages for GEOS and Proj from packages and I
already had the xml2 dev libraries.

I built GDAL using the pg_config from my source install of Postgres.

So when building Postgis after building GDAL  I had to do:

--with-gdalconfig=/path/to/gdal/bin/gdal_config

to get it to see the config file and not throw an error. Then Postgis built.
