The program is crashing. Trying to access memory it shouldn't.

Is it a script or an executable. Find out with:

$ file runcmdlinespeak

or

$ vi runcmdlinespeak

If a script, see what is on line 21. With:

$ vi runcmdlinespeak
:21

If it's running another program with (pid 3594), then this
is the program that's crashing, otherwise is runcmdlinespeak
is executable then it's the one crashing. You might be able
to find out more with gdb with:

$ gdb runcmdlinespeak
run
backtrace

It depends if debugging information was compiled in or not.

Lastly, we'll try to help but if there is a viavoice or
emacspeak mailing list or irc channel somebody might have
come across your specific problem before.
