Well, it is interesting to include support for more flite voices, but
the generic.conf way poses a lot of problems: speech-dispatcher can't
control the audio output, can't support indexing, can't set the volume,
needs to explicitly list all potential voices in the generic.conf file
with all attributes (language, male/female, etc.), etc. etc. It's thus
*way* more interesting to extend flite.c to support listing the voices
available in /usr/share/flite/ than introducing another way to use
flite, which may even confuse users.

As mentioned previously, you shouldn't need that with 0.9 RC2. If you
still have issues with RC2, please provide more details. At any rate,
this is not a proper fix since putting a space there is not without
consequences.
