Yes, dictionaries-common ispell.el and flyspell.el must work with all
emacs21, emascs22 and xemacs21 to properly interface default dict selection
in Debian. ispell.el and flyspell.el from emacs22 does not work with xemacs
and emacs21, so we keep with the old ones. Do not worry, most interesting
stuff in flyspell.el is backported to dictionaries-common flyspell.el. Same
with a good deal of things in ispell.el.
I have been doing some experiments to make emacs22 {ispell,flyspell}.el
work with emacs21 and xemacs21, but that is in a very preliminary stage.
Unless you want a specific feature from emacs22 flyspell.el, I will download
this bug report severity to wishlist and retitle it to something like
'Please consider upgrading dictionaries-common .el stuff to newest from emacs22'
