(Get the code!)
I have added the bug to libv4l because I think that's where the real problem lies. The solution to this problem is quite simple. Type on terminal:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:libv4l
sudo apt-get install libv4l-0 libv4l-dev
Then you will have the libv4l updated and everything will be back to normal, at least in my case. Cheese and gst-launch-0.10 will start having normal colors again. However, there is something that I could not solve. It's the problem with Skype. Even if you update the 32 bits library (sudo apt-get install libv4l-0:i386), the color problem is not solved. However, with the help of v4l2ucp you can change the saturation pattern and get a much more reasonable output.
I have spent a long time trying to get my webcam working, so I hope this can help other people.
