Description of problem:
The command 

festival --tts t

segfaults on the attached file "t" 

(very minor changes to the file avoid the segfault). If MALLOC_CHECK_
is unset, one gets the following error instead of a segfault:

*** glibc detected *** malloc(): memory corruption: 0x0a6783a0 ***
Abort


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
festival-1.95-1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run "festival --tts t"
2.
3.
    

Actual Results:  segfault or abort on error depending on whether
MALLOC_CHECK_ is set.

Additional info:

"cat t | festival --tts" behaves as expected (no error), 

Removing a character up to and including the closing brace in the file
t seems to
