AFAIK spell checking only works on words. A word is defined as anything 
delimited by white space (or maybe dots etc). So there's no way to mark 
"blah hoc" as incorrect while accepting "ad hoc". That's because a spell 
checker knows nothing about context, which is also the reason there's no 
grammar checker in OOo (grammar checker = spell checker + context).
