All other brltty speech drivers work, and, for sD, the only unique action taken 
is to call SD's own spd_sayf(). If there's a problem, therefore, it's either 
within or below spd_sayf(). The only other possibility, i.e. that spd_sayf() is 
being called with bad arguments, would appear to be highly unlikely because 
other SD modules (than espeak) do work and because the fact that the accented 
characters are now working correctly means that the UTF-8 characters are being 
formed correctly. So, at this point, the only thing to be done, at least as I 
see it, is for the SD people to figure out why their code isn't working.
