$ gst-inspect-1.0 frei0r

Plugin Details:
  Name                     frei0r
  Description              frei0r plugin library
  Filename                 /usr/local/lib/gstreamer-1.0/libgstfrei0r.so
  Version                  1.2.4
  License                  LGPL
  Source module            gst-plugins-bad
  Source release date      2014-04-18
  Binary package           GStreamer Bad Plug-ins source release

  0 features:


$ gst-inspect-1.0 frei0r-filter-delay0r

No such element or plugin 'frei0r-filter-delay0r'

I recompiled gst-plugins-bad-1.2.4 - there are no configure or make errors for frei0r and it is a plugin 
without deps.

Cheese-3.12.2 has the same problem :(
