Hi Gena,

Actually, you have it reversed.  You will need to re-emerge speakup
after you upgrade your kernel, not the other way around.  The patches
are part of gentoo-sources, whether or not you install speakup.

Yes, I am planning on doing another snapshot for gentoo, probably no
later than this weekend.  There have been several changes to the git
repository the last few days, so I want to wait a day to be sure we
don't get any bug reports.
