I did not make myself clear here.  My suggested procedure was
start emacspeak as normal, including the setting of EMACS_UNIBYTE
start your favourite shell in a shell buffer
remove EMACS_UNIBYTE from the environment in that shell buffer with a
>recipe depending on your shell
Then make auctex
the make procedure includes lots of batch invocations of emacs either
to byte compile or the generate the auto-loads.  This procedure
ensures they'll be compiled multibyte if needed.
This won't affect the tts since it sees the environment with which
emacs was started

Almost certainly not but it's in the update/make/install cycle for
auctex and if you're a cvs addict you may well find yourself

Speaking of cvs addiction, I heartily recommend upgrading to the cvs
snapshot of emacs.  I was having tremendous stability problems with
emacs-21.3 and DecTalk, involving emacs freezing etc.  The TTS crashes
as often as it ever did with emacs-22.050 but it doesn't take emacs
down with it any more
