$ gst-inspect adder INFO (24680: 0) Initializing GStreamer Core Library version 0.4.2.1 INFO (24680: 0) CPU features: (808029bf) MMX 3DNOW registry: loaded user_registry in 0.366546 seconds (/usr/home/jip/.gstreamer/registry.xml) registry: loaded global_registry in 0.377450 seconds (/usr/local/var/cache/gstreamer/registry.xml) couldn't construct element for some reason This is preventing me from running rhytmbox.
run gst-inspect --gst-mask=-1 adder and attach output. run gst-feedback and attach output. give full information about your distro and how you compiled everything.

0.4 is a long time ago. Do you still experience this issue with 0.6 release? (and using net-rhythmbox)
Still happening, with released and cvs gstreamer. net-rhythmbox works ok though.
After unsetting the enviroment variable LD_BIND_NOW=yes gst-inspect adder runs fine. This was also troubling me with evolution-1.3, see http://bugzilla.ximian.com/show_bug.cgi?id=38654
Assuming that this is not a GStreamer bug...
