+It's been sent, and I've started checking out the problematic files in
+hexedit. I've done the following on the file :
+Run it normally through gstreamer : they report a media type not
+found. That's sane.
+Strip the tag using id3v2 -D : the file now works.
+Add one element using id3v2 : it works.
+Progressively add more and more elements using id3v2's editor : it
+still works.
+
+It seems like gstreamer chokes on non-standard headers.
+
+I'll include a full bug report that looks strangely like a lab report
+(I had chemistry and physics courses last year, don't blame me :)) as
+a plain text attachment, and probably will forward part of the report
+to Cantus for examination, if the project's not just bloody dead =)
