I'm not sure if this has been suggested before, I understand little of the above. Still, I waa thinking:

If e-speak is hard to run but mplayer works, how about pre-rendered wave files? Some program runs through all the numbers and renders a number.wav with contact name in it.

No need to look anything up at ring time, just get the incoming number and play the number.wav. E.g. 0123456789.mp3/wav/whatever would have a voice that says "Jim" in plain English.
