time-less-p symobol's definition is void?

[Tim Cross <tcross@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

OK, I should have looked a bit harder. Just for completeness ....

The function time-less-p is part of the dite-time package. I had made
some changes to my init file which commented out some packages when I
was trying to track down the auctex font-lock problem. One of these
packages must load something which requires time-date, which is why I
had not seen this error before. Once I put

(require 'time-date)

in my .emacs, I no longer get the error. 

Raman, do you think a require time-date should be put into the
emacspeak-speak.el file to avoid this error for users who may not be
loading something else which implicitly loads it?
