I can also confirm similar behavior after the 10.1.5 and SR1 updates. For me
Entourage simply loses its custom dictionary. In-line spelling continues,
but words I've added to my custom dictionary (Such as my last name) start
getting marked as misspelled and I cannot add words to the dictionary (the
Add entry in the contextual menu is grayed out). Simply restarting Entourage
will clear up the access to the custom spelling dictionary. Multi-word
corrections do *not* work for me (I can happily time "might of had").

I couldn't tell you which update might be at fault since they were installed
less than a day apart.

The Custom Dictionary *is* in the default location, namely:

/Users/remo/Library/Preferences/Microsoft/Custom Dictionary
