Using cheese-3.10.2 compiled from scratch, the integrated webcam on my
dell e6220 is not detected, but using guvcview it works fine.

Various output pasted below, what trouble-shooting steps could I try?

I did some more checking and found:

$ cheese --device=/dev/video1
...

(cheese:9922): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_ref_sink: assertion 'G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed

But this works:

$ gst-launch-1.0 v4l2src ! xvimagesink
