There is an old set of configure switches that allows pointing to directories for the spelling/thesaurus/hyphenation dictionaries. It still works on Linux, where it is more useful: most free software use the same dictionaries, so Linux distributions configure them to share all the same dictionaries in a single, shared location: /usr/share/myspell/ /usr/share/mythes/ /usr/share/hyphen/ It might be useful to turn this into a runtime configuration option, instead of setting it at build-time; system administrators could change this with simple xcu configuration files.
