Upstream is working on fixing this, see:

http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/cogl/2014-April/001641.html

The new cogl_path bindings will live in a separate gir, so small changes will be
needed (import CoglPath rather than import Cogl, for example).

If pitivi could be updated with that upstream change it'd save us all a lot of
pain though.

Thanks,
