I don't see any problem with aspell:

        $ echo horses | aspell -a
        @(#) International Ispell Version 3.1.20 (but really Aspell
        0.60.5)
        *
        
        $ echo horses\' | aspell -a
        @(#) International Ispell Version 3.1.20 (but really Aspell
        0.60.5)
        *
        
        $ echo phed | aspell -a
        @(#) International Ispell Version 3.1.20 (but really Aspell
        0.60.5)
        & phed 7 0: PhD, phew, peed, pied, shed, he'd, she'd

The last example is just to show what aspell reports when presented with
a misspelled word.  Any other ideas?
