Please provide a more complete description of your ispell.el setup, in
particular how did you tell ispell.el to invoke aspell instead of the
default ispell.  (IIRC, aspell comes with a shell script called
"ispell" that makes aspell more compatible with ispell; did you try
using that script?)

Btw, it's possible that I missed something, but I cannot find the
error message like the above anywhere in ispell.el.  Can you trace
where it is coming from?
