The NetBSD port patches abiword to use NetBSD system ispell dictionaries,
so it is certainly possible - but you won't get much support from the
AbiWord developers if you take that route.
debian builds abiword to use pspell/aspell and uses debian system
aspell/ispell hashes.
what operating system / architecture are you using?
the basic problem with ispell hashes is that they are hideously
unportable. ispell has a number of compile-time options that affect the
hash format, and compiler/architecture probably affects it as well...
abiword has a particular choice of settings and I have an x86 and ppc set
up to build hashes with those settings - chances are your distribution
uses different settings.
