When it comes to TTS (text-to-speech) libraries in Linux, what choices do developers have?

What libraries ship with the majority of distros?

Are there minimal libraries? What functionality does each library offer?

I'm approaching this primarily from a C++ point of view, although Python would suit me too.

Use Flite as your speech library, and then use voices from festival or festvox.
