The previous version of festival, 1.95-beta, was extremely picky about
the compiler. When DragonFly moved to gcc 4.4 as the default, this
package would no longer build because it didn't share the pre-requisite
gcc 3.3.6 with NetBSD.
The latest version will accept any version of gcc (tested by developers
to version 4.5). Upgrading the package has the double benefit of once
again building on DragonFly and removing the requirement to build
gcc 3.3.6 on NetBSD.

configuration purposes).
Tested by myself on NetBSD/i386, and on NetBSD/amd64 by Quentin Garnier.
because their #! lines contained an incorrect path. Also, even if
they had actually pointed to the installed "festival", it would still
not have worked because a script cannot be used as a script
interpreter. Even if it could, it still wouldn't have worked because
the festival script did not pass --script as the first command line
argument as festival.naked requires when running a script. Fixed
by pointing the #! lines directly at the festival.naked binary.
