0.10 is not maintained any longer, so let's focus on the 1.0 issue:

I can reproduce this with git master: gapless playback using "about-to-finish"
does work fine for local files, but not over http for some reason. It plays
fine the first time, and then "about-to-finish" is emitted repeatedly. There
might be a race, because I think I had it play twice when running in valgrind.
It works fine from local file.

$ ps aux | grep web
tpm 23643 webfsd -r /usr/share/sounds/ -p 9999

tpm at zingle:~/gst/glib-git/code$ ./test-loop
http://localhost:9999/KDE-Sys-Log-In.ogg
Now playing: http://localhost:9999/KDE-Sys-Log-In.ogg
Running...
about-to-finish; setting next to http://localhost:9999/KDE-Sys-Log-In.ogg

about-to-finish; setting next to http://localhost:9999/KDE-Sys-Log-In.ogg

Returned, stopping playback
Deleting pipeline

I added the countdown bits to make it stop after N iterations. The
about-to-finish lines all run through in about a second.
