[aspell-devel] gnu emacs incompatibility?

[djh]

Platform:
GNU Emacs 22.0.50.1 (i686-pc-cygwin, X toolkit) of 2006-07-28
CYGWIN_NT-5.1 1.5.21(0.156/4/2) 2006-07-30 14:21
@(#) International Ispell Version 3.1.20 (but really Aspell 0.60.4)


Note, that apsell 0.60.3 worked fine with this platform.  The leads me to 
believe that something was done or affected which causes an incompatibiltiy 
with emacs.


Note: aspell 0.60.4 does work from the command line however.


Suspicious points are in emacs's changes to ispell.el, the ispell-init-process, 
or most likely in the new (Oct. 2005) aspell code.  Or it might be my 
particular configuration with cygwin.  But, again I didn't have a problem with 
the old version of aspell

 and the new one works from the command line.

Description of the problem:

The error message is displayed after the 2nd successfull
(ispell-get-coding-system) upon trying to do another step.  See below:


File; ispell.el
Line: # 2535

        (set-process-coding-system ispell-process (ispell-get-coding-system)
                                   (ispell-get-coding-system) ))
                                                             ^
---------
Result: iso-8859-1 [2 times]
error: "Input file descriptor of ispell closed"
---------

If instrumented and issued a 'G'o cmd. the debuger stops at
line # 2560
         (error "%s" (mapconcat 'identity ispell-filter "\n"))))  


The is the same error message when ran without the debugger.

"ispell-init-process: Error: nroff: dlopen returned "No such file or directory".


I have sent out a similar not to the aspell group, but I want to ask if anyone 
on this group has tried to use 

   cvs emacs with aspell-0.60.4 

and if so did you have the probelm I ran into?


*Note: This same incompatibily occurs with emacs-NT, the windows version
   GNU Emacs 23.0.0.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of 2006-06-05 on TPAD
