More specifically, aspell < 0.60 does not support utf-8.

A better solution might be to extend ispell-check-version to check
aspell's version as well (right now it only checks whether ispell is
really aspell), and modify the default value of ispell-program-name to
use aspell only if it is >= 0.60.  But doing it in the
straightforward way would involve a forward reference to
ispell-check-version from ispell-program-name...
