[gst-devel] Use of g_print

[Benjamin Otte]

gst_utils_dump_mem is a utility function for debugging purposes and is
never used in elements unless requested (fakesink dump=TRUE). I use it
quite a bit.

The problem is that the output of that function is already quite wide, so
adding the debugging info on the left side would probably make it have
line breaks. So it's used as normal g_print's.

But since it's never used unless requested (as any other output to stdout)
I don't see a problem there.
