    Aspell 0.60 in pipe mode (the may emacs uses it) will always support 
    utf-8.  The information in the README only applies when checking documents 
    in curses mode.

That is good news.  (Maybe it would be useful to clarify your README
file.)  So it remains to check this issue:

    * Some code passes a word to spellcheck on the command line, as
      opposed to through stdin.  (aspell will interpret it according to
      the current locale.)  I haven't checked for this thoroughly.

Magnus, if you could do that...
