Latest GStreamer modified it heavily and it did not compile without pulling additional dependency from GLib, but since we do not use it anyway it was removed. Corresponding calls to gstpluginloader.c from gstregistry.c were disabled as well.

I get a compilation error on my admittedly too-old Ubuntu 16.04 system. It might be worth adding the missing header file, in case other distros hit the same problem.
