Ok, I've committed your patch and added a FIXME for 0.11 to not recurse into
directories.

        Patch by: Rob Bradford <rob at robster dot org dot uk>

        * gst/gstregistry.c: (gst_registry_scan_path_level):
        Don't recurse into .debug directories as some distros install
        the debugging symbols next to the plugins in .debug directories
        and dlopen() crashes on them sometimes. Fixes bug #508070.

        Add FIXME for 0.11 to not recurse into directories at all because
        it's very inconsistent to the behaviour of other PATH environment
        variables.
