So that would be under "The Old" on Aspell.net, which is linked as
project homepage at http://sourceforge.net/projects/pspell/

Maybe you could make that bit less confusing, because now I think I
also need the old aspell? Or don't I? Will the new Aspell conflict
with the old pspell? etc...

OK, It's confusing, but I'll try --with-pspell and see what I come up with.

By the way - I have some compatibility changes for the BSDI 4.2 platform.
Should I submit them here in inline-text or attached patches and what diff
format do you prefer?
