Duffy, Yes it was. If you click Help --> About, you can see it among other items that were compiled in. With Festival, you have to start the server before starting Xastir. Entering 'festival --server &' at the command prompt (without the quotes) will do it. Then via File --> Configure --> Speech you can test it with the test button. I have the new binary installed in Kubuntu, and text to speech works. There's a blurb about using Festival in the HowTo for installing from source. I'll plan to add it to the HowTo for the binary.
