I use Scratchbox 0.9.8.5 with Maemo 1.1 and GStreamer 0.8.10 (the one 
preinstalled with maemo), everything running on a linux fedora core 4.

The error I get at compilation time with the gst-plugin package is this:

It seems that the gstreamer installation isn't complete. If I could get 
the gst-plugin configure/make to skip or forget the tcp plugin, which I 
don't need, I think I could also have my own plugin compiling.
