Kernel/Speakup Compilation Problems

[Steve Holmes]

Is anyone else out there using Speakup with 2.6.20 kernel successfully?
I've been looking at the code for speakup and see a discrepancy with
ld_help vs load_help.  I wonder which it should be.  From what I see
here, speakup.c is dated 12/28/2006.  Is that the most current? Is the
FL mirror behind again?I wish now I had kept the patched kernel for
2.6.19.2; at least that compiled cleanly.  I just moved on since I had
some other problems with that one (Not related to speakup) and 2.6.20 is
out so onward with this one.  

I also noticed that declare_work wasn't used now; can I safely remove it
entirely? I think that will fix the ld_help problem too.
