The german dictionaries de_DE.dic, de_DE_neu.dic, and de_DE_comb.dic all contain
both the new *and* the old spelling, unlike their names suggest (e.g. Thunfisch
/ Tunfisch or selbständig / selbstständig). Therefore, they are of limited use
only (e.g. activating the spellcheck with the new dictionary will still tolerate
the old spelling). 

This is confusing. I suggest that either their content should be fixed (e.g. the
new/old spelling removed from the respective files) or that they should be
merged to a single dictionary de_DE_comb.dic. 

The output of "grep" below demonstrates the issue (Thunfisch is the old and
Tunfisch the new spelling for tuna -- you'll find a similar situation for many
other words):

:~/test/dict> egrep Th?unfisch *.dic
de_DE_comb.dic:Thunfisch/EPST
de_DE_comb.dic:Tunfisch/EPST
de_DE.dic:Thunfisch/EPST
de_DE.dic:Tunfisch/EPST
de_DE_neu.dic:Thunfisch/EPST
de_DE_neu.dic:Tunfisch/EPST
