I guess you're using the LyX-2.0.0alpha1.dmg I build on Snow Leopard.

You're right, no aspell support :(
I didn't read carefully enough this part of configure output:

checking aspell.h usability... yes
checking aspell.h presence... yes
checking for aspell.h... yes
checking for new_aspell_config in -laspell... no
checking whether to use aspell... no

So I looked for the reason and found that configure detected the headers of 
aspell but did not find the library.
When trying to improve the situation I learned that my "universal" aspell 
library from macports is like that:

% file /opt/local/lib/libaspell.dylib 
/opt/local/lib/libaspell.dylib: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures
/opt/local/lib/libaspell.dylib (for architecture x86_64):       Mach-O 64-bit 
dynamically linked shared library x86_64
/opt/local/lib/libaspell.dylib (for architecture i386): Mach-O dynamically 
linked shared library i386

So in fact I cannot build a ppc version of LyX with aspell now. I'll see what I 
can do...
