Hmmm...very odd, and I'm sorry to hear about the problems.  I wonder if
there might be something in the content of those large blocks of text
that make FreeTTS fail?

I wish I had the time to help debug this problem more.  Unfortunately,
though, I'm under a massive crunch to get Orca V1.0 into GNOME 2.16.
