I'm really not sure what to add to the wiki concerning the gail
issue.  I think it was generally a cause of miss matched libraries or
something.  I might like to have clarified the exact dependency order;
that is, in what order these packages should be maid/installed.  I
think if all went in the right order and specify the same --prefix
option throughout, I would have probably never had this problem.

I do need to write up something for installing gnome/orca on a
Slackware system.  Perhaps I can stick some side notes in there.  What
I need to do there is build my write-up in a plain text file first and
then upload to the wiki when I figure out how:).
