Instead of installing an "ancient version of gstreamer including plugins for mp3-support", rebuild missing packages (from src.rpms!) and update them with contents of cvs/svn where possible (e.g. at rpm.livna.org). E.g. for gstreamer-plugins-mp3 you will end up with something like http://home.arcor.de/ms2002sep/tmp/fc4-extras/ but need to add the required LAME, Mad and libid3tag with rebuilt src.rpms from FC3. Alternatively, just wait until rpm.livna.org and other repos offer builds for FC4.
