Are you sure you don'T miss a ';' in an own include you include before gst.h.
Best would be to attach you source and show use the full commandline.

gst-inspect is a link to gst-inspect-0.8 (in case you are using 0.8). Which 
distribution you are one. Have you installed gstreamer by yourself from source 
or as packages. gst-inspect is part of the gstreamer (core) package. Try 
gst-<TAB> doe it show anything?
