Description Francis Labonte 2004-05-10 14:20:45 UTC
When an element send GST_ELEMENT_ERROR, some other element may be destroy 
before they come back from pad_push.

In the actual case (in gst_pad_event_default_dispatch function), the call to 
pad_push never come back and since an event is ref before calling pad_push, 
there is a leak.

Do you have any specific application that shows an error? Never returning from a
function can only happen when using cothreads or stopping a pthread.
