This should be correct.

This should also be correct.

This is difficult to understand.  Try to `guinzip' ispell.el.gz and
remove ispell.elc and see if you still get the same error.  Also check
what ispell is actually loaded.

Maybe so---check whether ispell.el contains anything like ``(defun
ispell ...)''.  The commands I use are ispell-buffer, ispell-word, and
ispell-region.
