I've been forwarding the pronunciations directlly to the Polish list 
lojban-pl@ggoglegroups.com .  I think I had a problem in 
distinguishing your sounds.

My understanding is that if certain sounds don't exist in a language, then 
not only do we have difficulty in pronouncing them - our ears are not tuned 
to hearing them either.

As I wrote before, the Polish sound is closer to {x} than to {'}.  I checked 
some 

stuff by googling IPA and found some disagreement even on which IPA symbols 
best represent the Polish eich.
