What about everyone out there building from source?  Or on distributions
not supported by Ximian.  Also, I would hope that this would make it so
that you don't have to distribute new aspell packages on platforms which
use the older aspell -- it leads to less long-term package universe pain
and avoids causing problems in other aspell-using apps that people have
installed.

What sort of problems (bug #s are great -- I only saw one that was 1.0.x
from a quick look at bugzilla) and I'll try to take a look as well when
I'm waiting on other things.
