Ok. Thanks for the clarification.

I am doing this from the command-line as I ideally want a
non-interactive way of building everything required for espeak to
work.

I'm aware of this, which is why I am running into these problems :)!

Ah, so that is my problem -- `espeakedit --compile` did not produce
it, so I copied the file from phsource!

Ah. That makes it impossible to build everything from the command-line
non-interactively.

I would appreciate it. The following works:

----- 8< -----
diff --git a/src/espeakedit.cpp b/src/espeakedit.cpp
index 788927a..a681dbd 100644

                exit(0);
        }
 }

I now have espeak, espeakedit and espeak-data built and `espeak -v en
hello` works!

Thank you for your help,
