I answered your email on the other list, dictionaries are from OpenOffice: http://archive.services.openoffice.org/pub/mirror/OpenOffice.org/contrib/dictionaries/
I did try to use utf-8, I can copy my settings again:

(after 'ispell
  (message "loading spellchecker")
  (defvar *load-start* (current-time))
  (defun anarcat/time-to-ms (time)
    (+ (* (+ (* (car time) (expt 2 16)) (car (cdr time))) 1000000) (car (cdr (cdr time)))))

  (add-to-list 'ispell-dictionary-alist '(("svenska"
                       "[A-ZÖÄÅa-zöäå]"
                       "[^A-ZÖÄÅa-zöäå]"
                       "[']"
                       nil
                       ("-d" "sv_SE")
                       t
                       utf-8)
                      ("svenska8"
                       "[A-ZÖÄÅa-zöäå]"
                       "[^A-ZÖÄÅa-zöäå]"
                       "[']"
                       nil
                       ("-B" "-d" "sv_SE")
                       t
                       utf-8)
                      ("english"
                       "[[:alpha:]]"
                       "[^[:alpha:]]"
                       "[']"
                       t
                       ("-d" "en_US")
                       nil
                       utf-8)))

  (setq ispell-local-dictionary-alist ispell-dictionary-alist)
  (setq ispell-hunspell-dictionary-alist ispell-dictionary-alist)
  (setq ispell-dictionary "english")
  (setq-default ispell-program-name "hunspell")
  (setq ispell-extra-args '("-i" "utf-8"))
  (global-set-key (kbd "C-c d") 'switch-dictionary-sv-en))

And for Eamcs itself to prefer utf-8

(set-language-environment 'utf-8)
(setq locale-coding-system 'utf-8)
(set-default-coding-systems 'utf-8)
(set-terminal-coding-system 'utf-8)
(set-selection-coding-system 'utf-8)
(prefer-coding-system 'utf-8)
