The main reason why I can't use rbutil here isn't that it's a GUI
application, but that rbutil doesn't handle more than one target easily
(did this change recently?).

When I'm updating targets, I'm running a shell script that calls 'make
voice' for 34 different build directories:
Female German and English voices for 14 targets, and male German and
English voices for 3 targets. How could I handle this using rbutil?
