GNU Aspell 0.60.7 is now available at:
  ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/aspell/aspell-0.60.7.tar.gz

This is primary a maintenance release.  Major changes from 0.60.6.1 include:

  * Add partial support for recognizing the Unicode apostrophe (’) in
    words.  In particular Aspell will accept the Unicode apostrophe
    when the language uses an ISO Latin charset that doesn’t already
    have a Unicode apostrophe.  For now, Aspell will still use the
    ASCII version in suggestions.

  * Fix a bug that caused Aspell to crash with a SEGFAULT when built
    with mingw-w64.

  * Fix a bug which caused Aspell to crash when passing in a null
    string to almost any of the C API functions.  This should not
    happen if the size is also zero as the pointer should never be
    derefrenced.

  * Detect when a dictionary compiled on a 32-bit machine is used on a
    64-bit one (and vise versa), as due to an oversight, compiled
    dictionaries depend on more than the endianness.  Also added a
    compile time option to remove this dependency, but at the cost of
    breaking compatibility with already compiled dictionaries on
    64-bit systems.

There was a compile fix and minor manual update between this release and the last release candidate (RC2).
