Original commit message from CVS:
Use plugin descriptions, which start with the major and minor version
numbers, instead of relying on each plugin to call gst_plugin_new
appropriately, and check the return value, and tidy up if there's a
failure.  This seems to work fine, and factors out some code common to
all plugins.
