Hi Dave,
I have a few ideas:
Ispell dictionaries are byte-order specific. PPC is big endian, and you
*might* have a little endian dictionary installed. Then again, our Ispell
support is sketchy anyway.
If you can, I'd suggest trying to build from source. Even moreso, I'd
suggest installing pspell and building abi with pspell support (or getting a
binary compiled with pspell support). http://pspell.sourceforge.net/
