Having looked at ispell.el, I don't think they are inconsistent; I think the logic of ispell.el is that if ispell-program-name is "ispell", it just checks the output of ispell -v: $ ispell -v @(#) International Ispell Version 3.1.20 (but really Aspell 0.50.5) and that parenthetic comment triggers ispell-really-aspell to t. I suggest we just fix flyspell to always use the -l flag in this case, rather than "list". Stephen
