I think it's better to upload the complete source of Aspell etc. instead of just a patch. This will allow the whole package to be compiled at once without having to download and patch a large number of tools. Of course it will also be in this separate directory.
Is there a compiler issue for aspell etc? I heard that you have to have Peter's patch for aspell/cvs to use msvc. This is unfortunate since msvc will generate smaller and potentially faster binary files... Bo
