I've never noticed this restriction.  I admit that I only use a few
speaking applications (Servant, VCS, ExceptionEdit) but they all work
with MacinTalk in the system folder.  And yes, I am using HFS.

Since Macintalk is just a device driver, I can't imagine why it would
be any different from any other device.
