using speakup with festival or flite

[Lorenzo Prince]

I couldn't get flite to compile on a slackware machine running an Athlon
XP 1800+ processor.  I have a friend who also couldn't get it to compile
on a pIII 850MHZ.  Both machines were running slack8.1.  Neither one of us
could get eflite to compile either.  We had to use the Debian packages for
both programs and use Alien to convert them to Slack packages to instal
them.
