It's not getting better through this clarification ;) But it's not your fault.
gst-register has the option --gst-registry=REGISTRY -- maybe the solution is to
set this to something like /var/db/gstreamer...? Unluckily I didn't see a way of
passing any such argument as compiler-option to multimedia/gstreamer.
I'll cc: Mario (lioux@), maybe he has an idea.
