Your ldd output shows you linking against libraries in /usr/local. I have emerged festival, and here is what my ldd output looks like: linux-gate.so.1 => (0xffffe000) libestbase.so => /usr/lib/libestbase.so (0xb7cdb000) libeststring.so => /usr/lib/libeststring.so (0xb7cc9000) libncurses.so.5 => /lib/libncurses.so.5 (0xb7c83000) libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0xb7c7f000) libstdc++.so.5 => /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.6/libstdc++.so.5 (0xb7bc5000) libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0xb7ba2000) libgcc_s.so.1 => /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.6/libgcc_s.so.1 (0xb7b9a000) libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0xb7a7e000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb7fbc000) Festival works fine here. Please make sure that you get the speech-tools libraries out of /usr/local/lib then re-emerge festival and try again. Let me know if this is still an issue and I will re-open this bug.
