Have you tried Pod::Spell and Test::Spelling? I think they already do

I've tried Test::Spelling only to discover that there are so many
exceptions which it doesn't recognize that it was very painful to try
and include in a test suite.  The list of stopwords for large systems
just became very unwieldy.  The idea behind the module is great,
though.

That's an aspell/ispell problem though, and not Test::Spelling's fault, right? You would have that same problem with any spell- checking solution.

In addition to my own modules, I've used it on Perl::Critic and PPI and (aside from Adam Kennedy's weird Aussie spelling!) and it worked great. That's about 29,000 lines of well-documented code -- I'm not sure if you consider that large or not. Perl::Critic currently has 29 stopwords not included in aspell-en.
