Thanks, Robert. I hadn't gotten the xemacs-sumo package. Downloaded and installed it and now ispell works (presumably using aspell since I didn't delete the lines in init.el that set ispell-program-name to aspell). I didn't change this in the interest of not fixing what isn't broken, but your approach makes sense. Thanks for including it.
