Seeing the corresponding fix will go a long way in making future
contributions for similar problems by me more useful, I hope :)

Sorry, I should have said that before---this is most certainly a
follow up error: As the ghost pad was not constructed correctly, it
can not be added.  Pretty reasonable given the circumstances.

I am fine with reporting them in bugzilla, I was just unsure what the
proper place was as the README doesn't contain any information with
respect to that.

Would that be the gtkmm module?  There is not yet a gstreamermm module
under Bindings, but there is a gstreamer module under Desktop at
bugzilla.gnome.org.  Just let me know your preferences (or better yet,
put them in the README).

Thanks,
