   I forgot the predicate I used, so the fix above will only work for HPs
   (ie, ispell won't work on suns).  The predicate should return NIL for
   HPs (or sys V) and t for BSD.  If somebody knows a good predicate ...

There's a variable called "system-type" which returns 'berkeley-unix
on the suns.  It probably returns either 'hpux or 'sysV or something
like that on the hps.  So (eq system-type 'berkeley-unix) should
return t for runs but not hps.
