3. EXPECTED

When running `espeak -v mb-us3 "Hello world"`, expected espeak to speak "Hello world" using designated mbrola voice without error.

4. ACTUAL

When running `espeak -v mb-us3 "Hello world"`, espeak speaks "Hello world" using designated mbrola voice, but terminal reports memory leak stacktrace. See below:

amy@ThinkPad-T510:/usr/share/mbrola/voices$ espeak -v mb-us3 "Hello world"

For what it is worth it, I can't reproduce this in Debian Stretch,
neither with espeak, nor with espeak-ng.

paul@testavoira ~ $ /usr/bin/espeak -v mb-us3 "Hello world"
paul@testavoira ~ $ /usr/bin/espeak-ng -v mb-us3 "Hello world"
paul@testavoira ~ $

Note, espeak-ng doesn't actually speak the words, I'll file a bug about
that.

And shouldn't this bug be assigned to mbrola? The error is:
*** Error in `mbrola': free(): invalid pointer: 0x09472da0 ***

This is actually a bug in the mbrola package.

Download the test file alice.pho at https://github.com/numediart/MBROLA-voices/tree/master/data/us1/TEST and try to create a wav file using:

When cloning mbrola source and building it with gcc the result works just fine.
