Please, tell me what
1. your configure line is for php
2. configure lines for aspell and pspell
3. location of your dictionaries
Another thing. You said:

What's pkgdata? I have not heard of such a thing. And neither do I have
en-american.pwli on my system. On my system .pwli files are located in
/usr/local/share/pspell (default location) and the one you probably want
is called en-american-aspell.pwli with the record in it referencing
/usr/local/lib/aspell/american. Note the -aspell part of the filename.
Or file en-aspell.pwli that is used for straight (non-americanized)
English that references /usr/local/lib/aspell/english. BTW, this is the
library you used when running the test ./example-c from pspell.
Anyways, rather than figuring out the mysteries of the spellchecker, it
is the easiest to do a default install of pspell and aspell, without
creating any new dictionaries by hand and all that kind of stuff. Once
you have this working with php, you can wonder off and do whatever
custom stuff you need..
