Fontsets and ispell

[Peter Dyballa]

Hello!

I tried to spell-check a LaTeX file in an AUCTeX (version: 11.55) 
buffer. When ispell hit the word sérifs (of sans-sérifs) this error was 
reported:

	Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Ispell misalignment: word 
`s\x8e9rifs' point 1574; probably incompatible versions")
	  signal(error ("Ispell misalignment: word `s\x8e9rifs' point 1574; 
probably incompatible versions"))
	  error("Ispell misalignment: word `%s' point %d; probably 
incompatible versions" "s\x8e9rifs" 1574)
	  ispell-process-line("^jetzt auch korrekt \\emph{sans-s\xf69rifs}? 
Isses, \\textbf{\\emph{isses wirklich}}!\n" nil)
          byte-code(...)
          ispell-region(1 3631)
          ispell-buffer()
          call-interactively(ispell-buffer)
          execute-extended-command(nil)
          call-interactively(execute-extended-command)

So obviously the é was passed as something else but itself. C-u C-x = 
reports this:

          character: é (07551, 3945, 0xf69, U+00E9)
	    charset: latin-iso8859-15 (Right-Hand Part of Latin Alphabet 9 
(ISO/IEC 8859-15): ISO-IR-203.)
         code point: 105
             syntax: w  which means: word
           category: l:Latin
        buffer code: 0x8E 0xE9
          file code: 0xE9 (encoded by coding system iso-latin-9-unix)
            display: by this font (glyph code)
	     
-B&H-LucidaTypewriter-Medium-R-Normal-Sans-12-120-75-75-M-70-ISO8859-15 
(0xE9)
        
        There are text properties here:
          face                 [(font-latex-italic-face font-lock-type-face)]
          font-lock-multiline  t
          fontified            t

Although it's stated 'buffer code: 0x8E 0xE9' the buffer's modeline 
starts with "-0:--", i.e. ISO Latin-15. ispell is set up to work like 
this customization:

 '(ispell-local-dictionary-alist (quote (("english" "[a-zA-Z]" 
"[^a-zA-Z]" "[']" t ("-C") "~tex" iso-8859-1) (nil 
"[a-zA-ZÄÖÜßäöüÇÀÂÁÉÊÈÍÎÌÓÔÒÚÛÙÑÆçàâáéêèíîìóôòúûùñæ]" 
"[^a-zA-ZÄÖÜßäöüÇÀÂÁÉÊÈÍÎÌÓÔÒÚÛÙÑÆçàâáéêèíîìóôòúûùñæ]" "" t ("-d" 
"german") "~latin1" iso-8859-1))))
