Bad error message?

In an application using gtkglsink I just got the error message:


ERROR:gtkgstglwidget.c:432:_get_gl_context: code should not be reached

which is fairly frightening

On using GST_DEBUG=3 the real message arrives:


gtkgstglwidget.c:430:_get_gl_context:<GtkGstGlwidget at 0xf7a2eo> Error creating GdkGLContext : Unable to create a GL context

So my point is that the original message is a problem, the message
above is what should have been issued in the first place. Is this bug
report type stuff?


The question arises of course why no GL context could be created, this
is a ThinkPad T500 running integrated (Intel) graphics with the Intel
driver. It runs other GL stuff just fine.
