Still some problems with git master:

B) now fails differently, and I think this failure is somewhat correct because
the ' shell quotes don't get passed to gst-launch; although it could probably
handle this by treating spaces within argv[x] differently.

$ gst-launch-1.0 audiotestsrc num-buffers=1 ! filesink location='12" .dump'
0:00:00.027121488 32286      0x2699560 ERROR           GST_PIPELINE
./grammar.y:757:priv_gst_parse_yyparse: unexpected pad-reference "dump" -
ignoring
WARNING: erroneous pipeline: unexpected pad-reference "dump" - ignoring


C) This one is "interesting":

$ gst-launch-1.0 audiotestsrc num-buffers=1 ! filesink location='".dump'
$ ls -l .dum 
-rw-r--r-- 1 tpm tpm 2048 Nov 28 11:10 .dum
