 I think there is other problem: two functions (say_prev_word and 
 say_next_word) uses simple and nice algorithm to find word boundary. 
 Algorithm used in get_word is similar, but not the same. My patch 
 corrects it only partially and it's still possible to loose some 
 important information with navigation by word.

 In meantime I found similar problem in update_color_buffer function: 
 when highlight tracking is on, speakup completely ignores characters 
 with MSB set.

 I'll try to prepare complete patch for both get_word and 
 update_color_buffer.
