Yeah, there might be some other fall-out with character substitution.
I was trying to get the speech dispatcher modules to behave more like
gnome-speech since it seems that gnome-speech does a better job with
substitution of characters.  See, formerly in the speech dispatcher
modules, character pronunciation is left up to the synthesizer.  In
the case of the bullet styles used in Open Office, the synth did not
have descriptions available for at least one style I know of for
sure.  So I examined the gnome-speech factory module and took out what
I needed.  There was a lot of extra stuff, it seemed, in gnome-speech
which I do not comprehend fully.  So I might have introduced some bugs
with this patch.  I'll have to try out Thunderbird some and see how it
goes.  I was in firefox long enough to update the bug report and
upload the patch and I didn't encounter any problems there so far.
