This seems the same problem described by Stefan Monnier in the "Problems
with ispell/flyspell" thread when no english aspell dict is available,

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2005-12/msg01343.html

where he proposed making sure a sane default is available by using first
entry of ispell-dictionary-alist-1 when nothing else works.

Attached patch seems to take care of that,
