I can confirm that for Finnish (export LANG=fi_FI) it does NOT work.

It insists on using american.hash no matter what. Then, if you rename
finnish.hash to american.hash, it tries to use that but complains:

expected magic2 0x9602, got 0x35.

but the file command correctly identifies it as an ispell hash file
(precisely like it does the original american.hash)!
