echo and hello bug

[James Jarvis]

I have submitted a bug in to the bugzilla at

https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?26744

in which hello just hangs.

I have tried a few tests around this to see if I can get any output via 
hello from the command line (from menu pressing C) but I cannot. The 
problem also occurs if I use echo. Any suggestions on how I might try to 
fix this (I am happy to test it)?

The fact that both hello and echo seem to exhibit the same problem 
suggests it is not the input as the former is set as a string in the code.
