Orca Building gnome-speech driver for eSpeak

[Willie Walker <William Walker Sun COM>]

gnome-speech work with the libespeak 1.18 version I have, but I might 
have some sort of something that was in between 1.18 and 1.19.

BTW, I was wrong about the sudo apt-get.  It ends up getting 1.15, which 
definitely will not work.  Here's some commands to type after you've 
copied the 1.18 or better shared libraries to /usr/lib:

cd /usr/lib
sudo rm libespeak.so libespeak.so.1
sudo ln -s libespeak.so.1.1.18 libespeak.so
sudo ln -s libespeak.so.1.1.18 libespeak.so.1

Then, rebuild/install gnome-speech and run 'test-speech' to see if 
eSpeak appears.  It should hopefully work.
