Is the bug really fixed there? Btw, if we've a fix and we know (Sven?)
what the fix is, that's enough isolate the patch and backport it to
current gstreamer in testing, if the code change isn't too intrusive.

I disagree since 0.10.11-1 is a new upstream, actually we've 0.10.10-2
for Etch. I don't think the release team will agree with the bump and
that it would be sane keep just base 0.10.11-1 and the rest of the
gstreamer related packages as 0.10.10-2.

With some hints i could backport the patch, but that would be better
if someone else from pkg-gstreamer does. Thoughts?
