Latest CVS speakup and 2.6.14.2

[Garry Turkington]

Hi,

Bet you're using gcc v 3.x.y?   Some of the recent changes to Speakup only 
compile cleanly on gcc 4.x.y systems.  The error about mixed declarations 
is the give-away, gcc 3 doesn't allow variable declarations except at the 
start of code blocks.

I made the file gcc 3.x.y friendly and planned to email it to  Michael but 
I'm getting Dectalk driver crashes on boot and I haven't had time to debug 
as yet.

Regards,
Garry
