staging/speakup: fix get_word non-space look-ahead

Browse Source 
get_char was erroneously given the address of the pointer to the text
instead of the address of the text, thus leading to random crashes when
the user requests speaking a word while the current position is on a space
character and say_word_ctl is not enabled.
