I think it's just an oversight, it should've been included. I'll test it
and include it with the next binary release if it works (and otherwise
file a bug).

I think this is the only up-to-date instruction: http://docs.gstreamer.com/display/GstSDK/Building+from+source+using+Cerbero

Just don't use that cerbero branch but this here: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/cerbero/

And best to build from the 1.2 cerbero branch, and instead of calling
"package gstreamer-sdk" as in the docs you call "package gstreamer-1.0"

I guess at some point I should write all this down and also put it on
the website of the GStreamer project so we don't have to depend on that
third-party website for documentation.
