It's a bug in GstBaseSink and has nothing to do with your code. The
warning is harmless though and shouldn't have any adverse effects. Will
fix it in CVS in a bit.

The reason it aborts is that you have the G_DEBUG environment variable
set to 'fatal_warnings'. Either you set that yourself or
gnome-session-manager (?) set it for you (it does that for gnome beta
releases I believe). If you unset G_DEBUG it should work.
