The first question you'll be asked in response to a bug report will be
what does the same spell-checking program does when invoked outside of
Emacs with the same text.

What you see on Ubuntu doesn't necessarily mean anything, because the
spell-checker used as a back-end for ispell.el could be different, and
so could be the dictionaries it uses.
