I have a long-running espeakup process here which, now that I give it more
thought, may have been started prior to the 1.1.2 upgrade and may still be
using the older version of the library.

Perhaps I shouldn't kill and restart it for testing purposes, although I will
if anyone wants testing done - I have a braille display connected, so the
absence of speech output wouldn't be a major concern.
