I'm currently putting YorkTalk-type timings into MBROLA .pho files
generated using uttmbrol from the xml files. Some of the segment labels
in the resulting .pho files do not tally with the labels in the .lab
files.

For example, 1164 has this in the .lab file:

0.253154 121 /
0.253154 121 t_c
0.277975 121 t_b
0.314003 121 t
0.320234 121 t_1
0.355538 121 @
0.381497 121 @_1
0.459441 121 r
0.488449 121 r_1
0.571300 121 Q
0.662899 121 b_c
0.673225 121 b
0.712735 121 D_v
0.742110 121 D
0.811800 121 @
0.970952 121 m
1.092500 121 /

but this in the .pho file

I've therefore changed the two cases of [3:] to [@] and [O:] to [Q] in the
files to be used for testing.

I mention this just in case anyone else has overlooked it.
