filesrc advertises itself as understanding the file:// protocol through the 
registry. However, it assumes location to be a path and prepends file:// even
if it has a file:// prefix already.

The patch I'm going to attach fixes that so that code like the following will
work:

/* ... */
uri = "file:///home/r/test.ogg"
source = gst_element_make_from_uri (GST_URI_SRC, uri, "source");
/* ... */
g_object_set (G_OBJECT (source), "location", uri, NULL);
/* ... */
