This will produce same problems like dotconf.
Dotconf is used in speechd and afaik there is no other app using it.
Speechd uses now a version which was not included in most distros.
This will ony prevent the use of new speechd version in up-to-date
distributions.

Nothing, only some trouble to build now dotconf, libdumptts, libsonic
and speechd because of missing integration.

FULLACK regarding ubuntu's a11y.
As you have described pld includes libdumbtts and who should package it
to debian suse arch gentoo ubntu etc???
Speechd is now at version 0.6.7 which is really old in Gentoo.
Debian stable also uses that version only.
In new debian squeeze we will get 0.7.0 with aditional patches etc.
The dotconf dependency to 1.3 is alread bad.
If you add more we won't get new versions of speechd quickly because the
aditional stuff must be included first.

Keep it simple if you want the stuff included.
Most of the distropackagers are doing that job in their spare time.
