[BRLTTY] cannot install brltty 5.4 latest git on gentoo

[covici at ccs.covici.com]

I have had a couple of problems trying to install brltty 5.4 latest git
on gentoo.

First of all, they apparently moved the speech dispatcher includes to
their own directory so libspeechd.h is now in
/usr/include/speech-dispatcher.  So in the libspeech.h in the speech
dispatcher driver, it tries to include  libspeechd.h from the wrong
directory so it fails.  I patch the include to say
speech-dispatcher/libspeechd.h and the build process got somewhat
further.  However the build failed, here is the last part of the build
