Hello,
I installed GStreamer via MacPorts. Running gst-inspect subsequently failed:
$ gst-inspect
wingo at wingomac:~$ gst-inspect
The process has forked and you cannot use this CoreFoundation functionality
safely. You MUST exec().
Break on
__THE_PROCESS_HAS_FORKED_AND_YOU_CANNOT_USE_THIS_COREFOUNDATION_FUNCTIONALITY___YOU_MUST_EXEC__()
to debug.

Error initializing: Error re-scanning registry , child terminated by signal

Unfortunately, I was not able to debug this, as I could not get GDB to follow
the fork. I worked around this issue by running gst-inspect with
--gst-disable-registry-fork.
