I've checked there changes against your patch and you and them have fixed everything identical. I've just fired of a build of the new gstreamer-ffmpeg-0.10.6 for devel, which should build fine against the new ffmpeg (verified locally). Actually, 0.10.6 won't build against the ffmpeg in F-10, but thats not an issue 0.10.6 seems to contain some interesting changes, so its better left to rawhide only anyways.
