Gentoo is at 2.1, while their download page says: "Version 2.4 Release December 2014". http://www.cstr.ed.ac.uk/projects/festival/download.html
2.1-r1 (the only version in the tree at present) also doesn't work with GCC 6... (bug #634928) :/ Also, 2.5 is out now.
Where did you find 2.5? ALl http://www.cstr.ed.ac.uk/projects/festival/ , http://www.festvox.org/festival/ and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Festival_Speech_Synthesis_System only mention 2.4.

ALl http://www.cstr.ed.ac.uk/projects/festival/ , > http://www.festvox.org/festival/ and > https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Festival_Speech_Synthesis_System only mention > 2.4. Not sure, I was investigating the segfault. Somehow my browser history is empty. :/ I can't rule out misreading the number. It sounds like a workaround for 2.1 is to build with -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks -std=gnu++98
For reference re CXXFLAGS: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1393019#c2 Not sure how to get this to effectively fix the ebuild yet. Simply setting package.env seems to be insufficient.

Err, well, maybe I should have put this here, but anyway, for reference: https://bugs.gentoo.org/650476
FWIW, new releases of festival, speech-tools and flite seem to be announced and published on http://festvox.org/ nowadays. Not sure why it's not properly mentioned on http://www.cstr.ed.ac.uk/, but we have to live with that.

Any update on this? Almost half a year have passed.
Should also get a newer EAPI.
Masked for removal
*sigh* What's the reasoning behind removing the whole festival suite instead of... actually working on it? I'm aware that the accessibility and sound teams seem to be chronically understaffed or overworked and a lot of packages are not very well maintained. festival, its dependencies like speech-tools and friends are very good examples of this. Even though fully supported by upstream, they haven't seen proper version bumps in almost 10(!) years. Most of the issues are likely caused by bitrot. If the actual problem is just that it's still using EAPI 2, we can probably more or less easily get it up to speed by using a newer EAPI version, only requiring small changes.
Created attachment 577452 [details] app-accessibility/festival-2.5 ebuild Now ported to EAPI 7.
Works locally, but I need to add and test more patches including those from Debian for known problems in speech-tools. I except work to be finished within 10 days, so I postponed removal.
ping
Almost here. Had HDD problems, so progress was delayed.
Sorry for delay, in progress now.
Ping buffer overflowed, removing.
