ext/gconf/gstswitchsink.c: If the new kid element fails to change state for some reason forward the error message it ...

Original commit message from CVS:
* ext/gconf/gstswitchsink.c:
If the new kid element fails to change state for some reason
(e.g. esdsink not being able to connect to the sound server),
forward the error message it posted on the bus instead of just
posting a generic 'Internal state change error: please file a
bug' error message. Fixes #471364.
