flyspell marks as incorrect “etc.”, “i.e.”, “e.g.” &c.

flyspell is of course behaving as expected: “.” is in OTHERCHARS, and as
it comes after the word, it is not included.

ispell sets my default dictionary to en_GB (from my locale, I presume),
and I’m using hunspell.

If I run ispell-buffer on a buffer containing the above words, they
pass, which is surprising in that it seems that the OTHERCHARS
specification has not been applied in this case. It is not surprising in
the sense that these definitions are in my dictionary.

The somewhat nonsensical result is that if I run ispell-word on such a
word marked incorrect by flyspell, the first correction offered is the
word I already have, plus a period. If I select it, the net effect is
that an extra period is inserted, and flyspell complains again.

I tried to move “.” to CASECHARS and NOT-CASECHARS in a custom
dictionary definition:

("en_GB" "[[:alpha:].]" "[^[:alpha:].]" "['0-9’-]" t
  ("-d" "en_GB")
  nil utf-8)

but this causes flyspell to give an error saying it got nil where it
expected a stringp in its post-command-hook. In any case, I guess this
would not do what I wanted without adding an inflexion rule to the
dictionary that allowed any word to add “.” (except, ideally, a word
that already ends in a period).
