I disagree. I was the one who asked for the change from -l to list in
the first place, because it wouldn't work for me. The situation seems
to be that your version of aspell installs a compatibility "ispell"
command which supports the -l option meaning "list", while my version
of aspell (0.60.2) doesn't install any such alias and only understands
"list" when invoked as aspell. (-l specifies the language to use)
So it seems that the variable ispell-really-aspell is moderately
useful, as there are three situations: ispell, aspell in ispell
compatibility mode, and "real" aspell.
The following patch eliminates the middle case. The documentation of
aspell 0.50.5 claims that it supports the "list" command, but I
haven't tested it.
