C++ is a flawed and lame language and does symbol mangling.  You need to
let the compiler know you're trying to use C functions.  This is
probably fixed in newer releases but you can add the following glib hack
around gstreamer includes in your code:

G_BEGIN_DECLS
#include <gst/gst.h>
...
G_END_DECLS

You should upgrade to the recently released 0.4.0.
