It appears that app-accessibility/espeak has not updated upstream since 2014. There is a modern drop-in replacement in espeak-ng/espeak-ng. Also, this ebuild is using EAPI 6 which has been deprecated.
I'll worko on this this week.

Finally drop app-accessibility/espeak support entirely in favour of app-accessibility/espeak-ng and make USE=espeak enable espeak-ng.

There are no reverse dependencies of app-accessibility/espeak left (all packages have been ported). We can either now last-rite app-accessibility/espeak or replace it with a meta/dummy package to reduce the conflicts/pain for users who need it (just make it depend on espeak-ng).
