Ok James Moss the xemacs debian maintainer told me this much, and I
Sent now an official bug report just a couple of minutes ago. As a
matter of fact I thought your answer would be with respect to this bug
report, which I would have found incredible fast.

Right, I had a look at the debian versus the original ispell.el (v
3.3) there are quite some changes. It seems that right now apt-get has
some connection problems. May be the easiest would be if you could
send me the ispell file before the change around May 12.
It might be a problem of the alist variable however it might be
something more specific in connection with flyspell.
