yes, i noticed the same problem. i used ispell instead, which appears not
to have this problem.

i don't use aspell very often, but i distinctly remember having the same
issue on 11.0, don't know about 10.2. i never bothered to report it,
though, because of ispell and because aspell works fine at work (where i
have slackware, not slackintosh.)
