it is not, were vo supported, Charles would have said so. Instead, he's added apple voices to his extention. I'll have to dig up the page and it is not an easy mountain to climb and the view from the top isn't pretty, but it does provide access to firefox that is not provided by apple.

Is support for apple's in built tts a roundabout way of saying VO is supported? I think not, but not sure what else they would have done. I know I should just download it and tinker and find out, but i'm on a mobile connection for most of today and the data charges are extortion, so figured I'd better understand it before I download.
