------- Comment #4 from Tim-Philipp Müller  2008-05-02 09:11 UTC -------
I think GStreamer's gnome-vfs plugin does check if ~/.gnome2 exists (in
plugin_init, indirectly via gnome_vfs_init or so) and fails to init the plugin
if it doesn't, so all that should happen is that the gnomevfs plugin isn't
available.

I don't believe there's much potential within GStreamer for a crash here, but
without a stack trace it's hard to say where the problem is exactly.

Maybe you could add a sleep 60 before the import and attach gdb to the apache
process in those 60 seconds via gdb -p <PID> ?
