I tried it and I cannot reproduce your problem.

What I did:
* install cocoaSpell
* start LyX 1.6.7
* open preferences, goto language -> spellcheck
* select aspell and apply
* press F7 then Ignore until end of document
* reopen preferences, goto language -> spellcheck
* select aspell(library) and apply
* F7 => error message: no word lists for en_US
* paste into the "Alternative language" field of spellcheck preferences:
/Library/Application Support/cocoAspell/aspell6-en-6.0-0/english.alias
* F7 => error message: no word lists for ""
* so aspell(library) seems to not work here

Please tell me, which way is yours?

To be sure I checked in Terminal.app my LANG value => de_DE.UTF-8

That's bad. Is it Intel Snow Leopard?
What's the first few dozen lines of the crash report contents?
