This is the xprint crash that was discussed on the freebsd-gnome mailing
list.  There is a patch floating around to fix this in gstreamer.  I
have asked anyone that can reproduce this to send a backtrace to phk.
He added the xprint code, and I have yet to reproduce this crash.  The
thread on freebsd-gnome sums up everything, but the long and short of it
is, gstreamer will use xprint if available.  Once the xprint code is
enabled, bad things start to happen.
