logger level can't decrease once increased

[Greg Wunder]

I'm using gstreamer in an application with access to the stdout from gstreamer via a gst_debug_add_log_function.
Through the user interface in the app, you can change the output level (in gstreamer this calls gst_debug_set_default_threshold).
It appears that setting/getting this value is not a problem, however after increasing the threshold past GST_LEVEL_INFO (3) & then attempting to bring it to a lower value (i.e. GST_LEVEL_WARNING), it appears that the output stays the same.  gst_debug_get_default_threshold at this point shows that I have set it to the lower number, but the output reflects that the higher log level is still being used.  Any ideas on what might be happening?

Could you check if we have a unit test for that (gstreamer/tests/check).
if not try writing a test that reproduces the issue. On success file a
bug and attach a patch with the test.
