#427 OSX: macspeech.c

[Curt Mills]

Put this into a separate thread so it doesn't stop
Xastir's main thread. Also make sure configure picks
up support for it on OSX and automatically compiles it in.

This is what Derrick said about it:

"the problem is it needs to be threaded or something,
because you have to explicitly block and wait for any
speech you queue to finish or it will clobber the
buffer when you queue the next item to speak. I never
did the threading, so i never made it configurable on."

We now spawn off up to ten processes that wait for the
speech subsystem, send their string, and exit. Awaiting
Derrick's report and may tweak the code a bit more.

We also need to set up "configure" so that it automatically
uses macspeech.c instead of festival.c on an OSX system.

The Xastir project no longer uses sourceforge for issue tracking and I am closing all open issues (all of which are very old).

If this issue is still important, please open a new one on https://github.com/Xastir/Xastir.
