Ah, that's what you get for using that Inferior Editor.  Emacs of course
works perfectly with aspell.  ;)

I guess the problem is that aspell is linked against libncursesw, but
(g)vim is linked against libncurses (no 'w').  I suppose I could provide
an alternate aspell binary not linked against libncursesw, but that
seems overly clunky.

How are you using aspell in vim?  vimspell?
