A assume doing online check here maybe out off scope ? So if you install postgis and never touch server the next 5 years there may not be passed out any info about EOL geos.

I thinks what's more important is that when you install a new postgis and you think that you have an update to date system, it would be nice with a warning message about geos if that is not fully up to date.
