List of changes from 0.60.5:
* Compile fixes for Gcc 4.3.
* Minor tweak to suggestion code which improved suggestion results in
certain cases.
* Always line buffer stdout and stderr in the Aspell utility when
there is the potential for it to be used interactively through a
pipe.
* Removed debug output in `aspell munch-list'.
* Other minor updates and bug fixes.
* Enable Unicode support.
- by default, textproc/aspell installs the English dictionaries (no
change);
- thereafter you can install any foreign dictionary;
- when you install a foreign dictionary, i.e. french/aspell or
textproc/da-aspell, it installs only the dictionaries, and depends
upon textproc/aspell for the programs;
- if you don't need the English dictionaries, you can define
WITHOUT_DICTEN or install textproc/aspell-without-dicten;
- add a new port for textproc/en-aspell: if aspell had been installed
without the English dictionaries, they can be added thereafter;
- add a missing port for german/alt-aspell;
- foreign dictionaries are almost independent from textproc/aspell,
and their maintainership is available.

This release fixes several bugs involving some of the C API functions,
fixes a major bug and improves the speed of the suggestion code, and
fixes a number of other bugs.
This release contains an important bug fix involving checking of
capitalized word when affix compression is used.
Aspell can be linked again with the base ncurses, then WITH_NCURSES
has been removed.
- Add two new dictionaries: Persian (Farsi) and alt-de (German using the
original spelling rules);
- A new slave port has been created for the Persian dictionary.
Remark: no new slave port for alt-de, because (1) it might get merged
with the normal de dictionary and (2) Serge Gagnon is working on a
reorganization of all these slaves-ports. To install it use the port
textproc/aspell.
This release adds a new Nroff and Texinfo filter and fixes a number
of bugs and portability problems.
Warning: aspell-0.60.1 is now incompatible with the base ncurses.
To keep the ncurses interfaces, please define WITH_NCURSES: aspell
will then depend on the port devel/ncurses.
Since devel/ncurses is not packageable, this is not the default.
Changes from version 0.51:
- Updated to SCOWL 6 which avoided using the original Ispell
dictionaries as they were a source of too many errors, among other
changes.
- Added en_GB-ize dictionary (British with "ize" spelling).
- Added en-variant_* auxiliary dictionaries.
The version number of this dictionary is 6.0 to correspond to the SCOWL
version. Aspell-6.0 is coming soon.
* Fixed major bug in pipe mode which caused the last character to be
chopped off words before they were stored.
* Minor formating fixes in the manual.

This port requires gcc 2.95.1 to build, so USE_NEWGCC
isn't set until -current is upgraded to that version.
