I would not be at all surprised therefore if slackware were to drop speakup by their next release, if the current issues with speakup weren't fixed by that time. It would surprise me greatly though to see a distro's team of maintainers take it upon themselves to cure speakup's serial code and other problems, just so they could include a speakup-patched kernel in their next release. Note, I am not saying myself that speakup has problems, I haven't looked at the code for a while. I'm just repeating what others have said on this in the past, so no flames if you please.
