I can think of a number of ways to determine language preference. You can assign each language preference to a dokuwiki group, check for the group at login and set a cookie which can then be checked in spellchecker.php.

Or if your users come from different countries you can determine country of origin of IP addresses using a free service from maxmind.com.

Just a side note: Deciding upon the language of the spellchecker depending on the language/location/preference of the user doesn't make much sense. ;-) It's the language of the *text* that's important!

Anika's comment prodded me into a better solution.

So now I seem to have a working spell checker with user choice of languages:
http://www.mturner.org/development/HTML-WikiConverter-DokuWikiFCK-0.28.tgz

This version puts a 'Language' button at the bottom on the editing window. It activates a pop-up which lets the user select a language, which can be changed as needed.

You have to have GNU aspell on your system, and any required language dictionaries, which can be downloaded from http://aspell.net
