What does your Hunspell output when invoked thus:

  $ hunspell -D

It should output all the dictionaries it has available -- that is what
ispell.el expects.  It was a long-standing bug in Hunspell that (some
versions of) it didn't, so I'm guessing that bug is still not fixed.
Look in their bug database for a patch, apply it, rebuild Hunspell,
and it should work (unless my guess is wrong and some other factor is
at work here).

Thanks, but I think this part is too drastic:

> -         (or (ispell-check-minver ispell-minver ispell-program-version)

> +              ((ispell-check-minver ispell0-minver ispell-program-version)

> +                            ispell-minver)))

We cannot give up the test of ispell-program-version.  I suggest to do
this the other way around: if Hunspell reports version 1.4 or greater,
_then_ and only then skip the ispell-program-version test.
