Thank for the offer of help; happily I got it to compile (the problem was
stale object files). It does not work though, giving this error when Abiword
starts up:

SpellCheckInit: Pspell error: I'm sorry I can't find any sutable word lists for the

Both aspell and ispell work from the shell, though...odd. Here are my
versions:
