I don't know how much sense it makes to add that. Are you using
printf/g_strdup_printf or so to create a string with a pointer-string?

I think a better approach would be:

  gst_parse_launch ("... ! yourelement name=foo ! ...", ...)
  myfoo = gst_bin_get_by_name (pipeline, "foo");
  g_object_set (myfoo, "pointer-property", ptr, NULL);

(also, a boxed type property is generally prefered to a pure pointer property).
