denyhosts quandry

[farhan]

Hello, I am running ubuntu 8.10, and I tried to compile portaudio 19, I 
had to fight with it to get it to compile, or at least espeak to compile 
using portaudio 19.
all this crap about linking espeak to the right portaudio, why can't 
espeak just compile and work, in any case, the 9.04 upgrade will 
probably break my switch over to alsa and i'll just switch to arch 
eventually.
