ispell checker code should be rewritten. It is ugly and hard to maitain.
*** This bug has been confirmed by popular vote. ***
This is usually about the time when Kevin Atkinson says "use pspell + aspell instead" If ispell is so ugly, why not put it out of your misery?
I'm closing this as "wontfix." After my+thomasf's work here, no one should ever have to dig down into this. No one is interested in updating the ispell code, and I don't blame them. We already support Aspell too, so we could easily transition over either way.
agreed.
