You probably can't, becayuse you run a developer install. The theory is simple,
though. Core 0.8.7's typefind and spider will define a GstTypeFind structure
that is *not* zeroed explicitely. Developer installs will zero this, stripped
installs won't. The check for this function checks for it being zero and else
executes it. Since it's not zeroed, we access random memory and thus crash. The
workaround is to not use the function until a newer core has been released.

Just trust me, this is an issue. Thanks.
