Aha!  Thanks.

I've noticed some very bad things with the gnome-speech interaction  
with the festival server on some Linux distributions.  It looks like  
the pipe/socket between the two ends up going a little haywire,  
causing a bunch of notification to be done for nothing.  The result  
is usually that the CPU throttles to 98% and you need to kill the  
festival server.  But...this may or may not be the thing you were  
running into.

While this problem is indeed important (any bug is usually at the top  
of least one person's list), I unfortunately have to prioritize  
things and I'm putting this one below work on OOo, Firefox, Java,  
etc. Related to the gnome-speech/festival issue, however, is that  
Orca should be able to recover from these kinds of things gracefully  
because things can and will fail.  We should definitely get that kind  
of stuff resolved before v1.0.

Thanks!
