It is not a bug, no. And it is not a missing feature, it is actually the feature itself: when Apsell and Hunspell are installed correctly, they don't need this variable to find their dictionaries. I use Hunspell, and the value of this variable in my Emacs is also nil, although spell-checking works well in several languages. So let me turn the table and ask you: why did you think this is a bug?
