Bug#549189: gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad: Crashes every gstreamer-aware app

[Stefan Kost]

Could this be a race in gobject? After all it crashes in
gst_signal_processor_pad_get_type
and not in gst_signal_processor_get_type.

What I wonder if it would help to do this? Other plugins like e.g. jack,
baseaudiosink, .. do that too.
