Looks good. Should work. ;)
Well, I came across a similar issue some days ago. You might want to try
it.
To check if spell checking works at all and the issue is your user
settings, create a new user on your machine. Log in as this user and
check if that user can spell check. A fake account with no valid server
settings should do. Try if you can enable spell checking for that
account.
The mentioned issue IIRC [1] was some wrong GConf settings. If spell
checking works for the test user, try removing (or *moving* for backup
purposes) the file
~/.gconf/GNOME/Spell/%gconf.xml
Start Evolution after that and try to enable spell checking. HTH
