Patches are welcome, but I doubt that it's so easy to find a robust
directory to run ispell, what with machines that lack a C: drive.  The
user's home directory might be a better idea, but even that is not
fool-proof.

So I think perhaps the code should try c:/ or ~, and if that fails,
fall back on the current behavior.
