OK. I reactivated dictionaries-common's .el init code, added the following:

(debian-ispell-add-dictionary-entry
 '("british+accs"
   "[A-ZÑÔa-zñô]"
   "[^A-ZÑÔa-zñô]"
   "[']"
   nil
   ("-B" "-d" "british-w_accents")
   nil
   iso-8859-1)
 "aspell")
(setq ispell-dictionary-alist debian-ispell-dictionary-alist)

to my .emacs, set ispell-local-dictionary to "british+accs", and it doesn't work: accented characters are still treated as non-word characters (so "rôle" doesn't spell-check).


If I set ispell-local-dictionary to "francais", then accented characters are accepted as expected.
