Just to tell that I could not reproduce the so-called second problem of
Emacs ispell.el not finding the place where the dictionaries
are. Actually I realized that ispell.el has some code to call « aspell
config dict-dir », and I could not reproduce the situation in which I
had come to a conclusion that ispell.el was relying only on the output
of « aspell -vv », and not that of « aspell config dict-dir », and was
not working because « aspell -vv » was not giving the LIBDIR.

I suspect that ispell.el tries to find the place where the dictionaries
lie only as a fallback when « aspell dicts » does not work (which was
the so-called first problem, and was the case with the aspell installed
by MSYS2 pacman), and therefore with « aspell dicts » working now
properly it is not possible to reproduce this. I tried to re-install
aspell with pacman to reproduce the issue, but it was fixed
meanwhile. Now MSYS2/pacman « aspell dicts » works fine.

So, in a nutshell everything seems to work fine off the shelf. When time
allows, I will try to recompile from git repo to get language support.
