By shipping an extra copy of gstreamer it also becomes a security risk if there's a exploit that's fixed in the mainline gstreamer and is missed being updated in the songbird copy. That is why there was an effort a number of releases ago to strip out all the included copies of db4/zlib/etc. EG there was a gstreamer CVE just recently.
