I'm happy to report that changing the versions of
several packages, including going back to an
earlier version of festival, seems to have fixed
the problem.
My test script
counter=0; while echo $counter | festival --language americanenglish -b
--tts ; do counter=$(( counter + 1 )) ; done ; echo Crashed after $(( $counter
-1 )) runs.
just completed a thousand iterations on the first try.

libaudiofile-dev* 0.2.6-4 0.2.6-6
libaudiofile0* 0.2.6-4 0.2.6-6
libmad0* 0.15.1b-1 0.15.1b-2.1
libmad0-dev* 0.15.1b-1 0.15.1b-2.1
I'm inclined to think that the package names
marked with "*" are unlikely candidates for the
bug, mostly because I suspect festival still
aborted after they were changed.
I suggest keeping this bug report open for a
while, or until the exact bug is identified.
Thanks,
Kingsley
