from the readme:

A.2.1 Unicode Support
---------------------

In order for Aspell to correctly spell check UTF-8 documents the "wide"
version of the curses library must be installed.  This is different from
the normal version of curses library, the and is normally named
`libcursesw' (with a `w' at the end) or `libncursesw'.  With out the
right curses version installed UTF-8 documents will not be display
correctly.

   In addition your system must also support the `mblen' function.
Although this function was defined in the ISO C89 standard (ANSI
X3.159-1989), not all systems have it.
