Has anyone else experienced a bug in ispell such that the local
dictionary is used on the first spell-checking session, but second and
successive sessions ignore it?

By "session" above I mean a single ispell processes, not a login or
emacs session.  By killing ispell (and thus causing ispell.el to
restart it) the local dictionary (typically ~/.ispell_words) is used
correctly - but again only the first time.

From ispell/version.h:
    "@(#) Ispell Version 2.0.01, May 1987 Beta posting";

Anyone have a more recent version?  Anyone got a bugfix??
