There is thousand of bugs opened and backporting a fix to stable
requires efforts, somebody has to work on the update, make sure it works
fine, then somebody has to approve it then quality people have to make
sure it works fine and not creating any regression. We can't spend those
efforts on every problem and usually bugs are fixed to the currently
worked distribution and the fix is available with the next stable
version. Fixes are backport for security issues and for problems which
are juged annoying enough to require a quick fix. gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg
is an universe package, which means it's not officially supported, the
distribution team is not going to spend effort backporting a fix then.
Maybe somebody from the MOTU team will be willing to work on that though
