It happened again today. Had to start a new emacs as replying to mail
was blocked by it. It must be a complex interaction between
ispell, gnus, ffap, (and ange-ftp? (which I never use)).
In all buffers concerned, the variables you mentioned are $HOME or
/tmp, i.e., OK.
All I know is
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (file-error "Setting current directory"
"no such file or directory" "/home/jidanni/http:/www.geocities.com/jidanni/")

The geocities buffer was created by a typo minutes earlier. I had
immediately killed it after it appeared.

That can't be.

In the *Backtrace* buffer, point should be at the beginning of the
call-process() line. Move to the check-ispell-version() line, and
please report what these commands display:
e (current-buffer) RET
e default-directory RET
e temporary-file-directory RET

That's not a fix, it's a workaround. The bug that sets default-directory
to something other than a directory still exists.

No I think it's a fix. `ispell' does not need to run in any particular
directory (i.e. it doesn't have to run in the directory of the file on which
you're working). `default-directory' can be validly set to a non-existent
directory (either because it hasn't been made yet, or because it's on
a remote host, or ...).
So you may as well run ispell in ~/ and get on with your life.

Where does http:/www.geocities.com/jidanni/ come from?
Obviously the problem is that some piece of code is using a URL for
a file name.

The `e' command does not pay attention to the position of point in the
debugger buffer.
