Oops, I should really document this somewhere (or maybe it is :-)
documented).  You need to do

  handle SIGSEGV noprint

at the beginning of the session, so that the SIGSEGV's are passed
properly to the generational GC.

This is done automatically if you're in the build tree (see .gdbinit
file), but if you debug an installed gst you need to do it manually.

But I think it's easier to use G_SLICE=debug-blocks and see what happens.

Oh, by the way, did you know that I have an "omnibrowser" branch in my
repository with OB-Core and OB-GTK already ported?
