Hi David,
I applied the fixes to a fresh copy of 0.60.5 then tried:
tar -xzf ../aspell-0.60.5.tar.gz
md z
cd z
../aspell-0.60.5/configure -srcdir=../aspell-0.60.5/
./make
<snip>
cd gen; perl 
mk-dirs_h.pl /usr/local /usr/local/lib/aspell-0.60 /usr/local/lib/aspell-0.60  
/usr/local/etc 
>  dirs.h
Can't open perl script "mk-dirs_h.pl": No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [gen/dirs.h] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/digital/temp/z'
make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

This was tried with Mandriva 2007 and it appears to have problems with the 
dots where instead of -0.60.5 it sees 0.60 (see mk-dirs line above).
I'm sure you're on the right path towards fixing the srcdir != builddir
