Well, if you use the CVS Speakup, you wouldn't need a parameter, per se. You'd still have the same early start of the 1.5 Speakup if you compile Speakup in the kernel--or you can add it to an initrd so that it starts almost as soon. Or, you can just modprobe for Speakup and your synth after the system boots.
