Comment 3 Mike Fabian 2005-08-23 13:09:09 UTC 
I can confirm that it happens only when the dictionary is changed
from the default.

When I have

(require 'ispell)
(setq ispell-dictionary "british")

in ~/.xemacs/init.el

start XEmacs and then activate flyspell mode in the scratch buffer
with "M-x flyspell-mode", the problem occurs. Without the line

(setq ispell-dictionary "british")

there is no such problem.
Comment 4 Dr. Werner Fink 2005-08-23 13:12:48 UTC 
Nevertheless, the bug is in ispell.el not in ispell :P

Patch to fix the problem.
Comment 6 Mike Fabian 2005-08-23 15:04:27 UTC 
It's strange but the ispell.el in our emacs package doesn *not*
have this bug.

the ispell.el in our emacs package is upstream version 3.4,
the ispell.el in our xemacs-packages is upstream version 3.6.

We did not fix the problem in the ispell.el version 3.4 in emacs,
it was already correct.
Comment 7 Mike Fabian 2005-08-23 15:07:46 UTC 
The upstream version 3.6 downloadable from
ftp://kdstevens.com/pub/stevens/ispell.el.gz
has the bug.
Comment 8 Mike Fabian 2005-08-23 15:13:08 UTC 
Fixed package submitted to NOARCH.
Comment 9 Mike Fabian 2005-08-23 15:49:46 UTC 
→ FIXED.
Comment 10 Mike Fabian 2005-08-23 15:50:25 UTC 
The latest development upstream version seems to have the bug
as well, see:
