BTW, it's worth pointing out that these recipes can be added in an additional
layer, so you don't need to patch the core - in fact there is a 
meta-gstreamer10 layer that says it's compatible with dylan already:

http://layers.openembedded.org/layerindex/branch/master/layer/meta-gstreamer10/

I'm not sure how well maintained it is, you'd need to talk to the maintainer
(who I've added to CC).

Cheers,
Paul
