This is to be coherent with the rest of the framework, it's just like you would
be ignoring this as part of the ABI, even if it permits changing the plugin
search path.

I'm not sure why you consider the env vars to be for development, but not the
gst-launch-mm, or gst-inspect-mm binaries.

I don't understand this part: "you can just give it the needed vars depending
on what version of gst it is linked to".


This bug is very minor to me, but I thought it should be noted that for some
reason, this particular part of the ABI isn't versionned.  I'm not disturbed by
this in any way, but thought this was simply forgotten.  This surprized me as
what you pass in these env vars is typically not compatible (you don't pass a
0.8 plugin path to a 0.10 app).
