Yes, it definitely makes sense to target 0.11/1.0.

One thought I've had is that S2API is a closer fit to gstreamer's API because
set_property/get_property could be mapped directly to the FE_SET_PROPERTY and
FE_GET_PROPERTY ioctls instead of storing a struct in the object but I didn't
do it that way before because it was simpler to keep the struct when retaining
backwards compatibility with the old DVB API.

Would it be OK to assume that S2API will always be available with gstreamer 1.0
and drop support for the old API? That would simplify the new version of dvbsrc
which I think is a better goal than minimising the changes made by the patch.
