Nope. I use gstreamer git though.

Well, first thing would be to try latest releases. Your versions are not so old but I can see some fixes of matroskademux in gst-plugins-good 0.10.27:

http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/releases/gst-plugins-good/0.10.27.html

Updating gst -core and plugins-base would also be good.

If you can still reproduce the deadlock then you should file a bugreport to gstreamer's bugzilla. The #gstreamer at freenode IRC channel is also quite active.

Having a deadlock during a seek is indeed not very nice. Can you reproduce that issue with local mkv files in Totem for instance?
