Now try:

   rm ~/.gstreamer-0.10/registry.*.xml
   gdb -args gst-launch-0.10 --gst-disable-registry-fork

and give gdb the command 'run'.  GDB will stop once with a SIGILL in
the function 'test_altivec()' called by 'oil_cpu_fault_try()'.  Use
the command 'c' to continue when this happens (since it's not a
problem).  It should stop again with a SIGILL.  Please capture the
backtrace at this point and attach it to the bug.

Just in case I forgot about some other CPU detection code, please
enter 'c' again.  It should say something like "Process Terminated,
killed by signal".  If it doesn't, it will probably continue along
until it hits another SIGILL, at which point you should create a
second backtrace.

As an off the cuff guess, it's probably due to the ffmpeg plugin,
/usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstffmpeg.so.  You could attempt removing
that to see if it starts working.  (The test command above is bogus
and will print an error, but it's not supposed to crash.)
