I can't speak for the Terminal thing, but mis-spelings definitely are
still announced when key echo is off on my machine running 10.5.1, so
there might be another secondary option that is causing this for you
in combination with the key echo.

Howdy,
For ages, I've ben wondering why it was that terminal had stopped
talking automatically, apart from reading the prompt. Well, I
figured it out, and just in case someone else hasn't here it is:
If you turn off key echo (i.e. set it to speak nothing while
typing), Voiceover no longer reads the terminal automatically. So
long as you have it set to read each character or word, Terminal
reads pretty well. Turn off keyboard echo and terminal reading
stops. (It's also interesting to note, though more understandable,
that word misspelling announcement also stops when keyboard echo is
disabled.)
