[muglo] Re: Corrupted Speechvoice in 10.3.8 Revisited

My first thought is 'what caused this to become corrupted?'  If you  
don't know and/or haven't fixed it, then I'd suggest that you do an  
Archive and Install of the OS rather than messing with trying to  
patch it up.

If you insist on trying to patch it (and I don't ever recommend  
messing with the system), find a machine with this OS and copy the  
voice you need to your machine, replacing the corrupted one and  
repair permissions.

Don't forget to back-up your user folder before doing anything else!

Good Luck!
Dave
