Again, this is a separate issue. I suggest you subscribe and/or
comment in the upstream bug. I was able to produce a hackish
gst-ffmpeg built with Debian's ffmpeg source as well (though it would
have required a ffmpeg-source package or equivalent), but it was not
good enough to be included in Debian.
I've forwarded your patch upstream for comments. I rely on upstream
for updates of gst-ffmpeg. Applying such a patch to Debian only would
put upstream in a situation where bugs coming from Debian might be seen
as "tainted".
