After upgrading from Ubuntu 11.04 to 11.10 I experienced this bug with similar
stack trace very often. 

In my case the problem was due to bug in fuser program [1]: fuser forked
uncontrollably and exhaused all my threads resources (number of threads limited
to 600 in /etc/security/limits.conf in my system), so any program that tried to
create thread at the same time that fuser was running have been failing. 

Patching fuser program [2] helped.

P.S. I'm using GStreamer 0.10.35-1 from Ubuntu 11.10.
