2.6.16.19 and backspace beeping

This is a bug in the current speakup code in cvs.  When Gilles made
changes he inserted a couple of new functions for reading and
translating characters in video memory.  He loses the attribute byte
in the call to his get character function so speakup constantly thinks
it is moving over a new background colour whenever the cursor moves
left or right or backspace.  I have hunted the problem down but
haven't had a chance to fix it yet.
