I migrated from lenny to squeeze in one jump with apt-get dist-upgrade. I 
never mixed packages from two versions. That much, I can tell for sure.

But I must have been wrong about aspell-fr not being upgraded. I assumed 
aspell-fr had not been upgraded because the version number remained the same 
but I now see that the packages from lenny and squeeze have different version 
numbers so it must have been upgraded during the migration.

Before rebuilding the package from sources, I tried to apt-get install aspell-
fr and confirmed that it was the latest version available. So I wasn't stuck 
with the old version at that time.

I can also tell that I have seen a lot of messages about an invalid locale 
during the dist-upgrade. Almost every single package did report a lot of 
identical warnings but, unfortunately, I didn't write the exact message down. 
I think it was a message from perl. aspell-fr could have been afflicted by 
that apparent wrong locale and failed to rebuild the dictionary properly.

This bug report lacks a sound basis. I propose to close the topic unless 
someone experiences the same problem and can provide more evidences.
