I tried ed, and it crashes just as horribly as edbrowse:
  BUG: scheduling while atomic: /swapper/0/0x10010000
and gruesome system hang; only the off-switch works.
So "something" is a bit of an understatement.

(I'm running debian squeeze:
  aptitude show espeakup
  Version: 1:0.71-1
  Depends: espeak, libc6 (>= 2.3.6-6~), libespeak1 (>= 1.30)
)
