The VoiceBuilding<http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/VoiceBuilding>
page has been updated and corrected and does now provide an updated version
of voicefont executable for windows.
The voice format should now be stable for a while, any remaining issues
should not require format changes, I can however not guarantee anything.

Also we do now provide new voice files built daily on the site, these are
generated with festival but are of descent quality.
