Hi Enrico:
Thanks a bunch for those patches!
I have a question about the utf-8/latin1 patch...

Are you sure this is sufficient? Don't you need to call g_convert in
order to convert the strings from the gnome-speech client to latin1
before passing them to the engine?

That's great news. But it seems to me that there should be something
more general and robust than just checking the voice string, in order to
determine the correct encoding which the festival engine/voice expects.
Note also that this problem seems to have been introduced on May 14 when
Will explicitly changed the encoding on the iochannel from ISO-8859-1 to
UTF-8. Will, can you explain why you did that?
