The file does exist, but it is not a directory (PATH is supposed to contain
directories AFAIK). However, the test in the gst-launch wrapper isn't entirely
correct, it should just skip this entry.

Should be fixed in CVS:

        * tools/gst-run.c: (get_candidates), (main):
          Fix wrong g_file_test() usage (see glib docs for why it doesn't
          work); fix typo in error message. Fixes #340079.
