Hi Keith,

thanks a lot for your interest in helping. Any backtrace from crash of
speechd-up or speech-dispatcher is appreciated. You must run
	gdb speech-dispatcher
(or preferably from the speech-dispatcher/src/server with
gdb ./speech-dispatcher so that you are sure you are executing the right
binary) and then type in
	run -s
If it crashes, type
	thread apply all bt
and save the output and send it to me.

The same (including the option -s) applies to speechd-up.

With regards,
Hynek Hanke

I gave this a try on his machine, and speechd-up just (in -l 5) kept
looping and saying it was reading one haracter from speech-dispatcher.
The program never actually crashed inside gdb.
