gst-plugin-scanner hangs, eating CPU time

[Rüdiger Kupper]

Dear Tim,

after reactivating execute permissions of gst-plugin-scanner I was able
to do an strace of one of the runaway gst-plugin-scanner processes.

The EAGAIN signals a saw in the strace of totem do not appear, so this
was not the cause.

I attach strace and proc/maps of the runaway gst-plugin-scanner process.

Removing gstreamer-plugins-bad and gstreamer-plugins-ugly did not help,
so the plugin causing the hang is not in there.

Any ideas will be welcome. Thank you very much,

regards,
Rüdiger
