The latter four are built against the "speakup" kernel which can be used
with various hardware speech synthesizers (by the blind, generally).
They also use a different user interface which is more suited to such
speech synthesizers.

One place that this is documented in the MANIFEST file you'll find in
the top-level images/ directory, which documents the purpose of every
