It comes from /usr/local/bin/aspell. By some default the dictionary is
set to English and I did not install the English dictionary
/usr/local/lib/aspell-0.60. Now I have symbolic links there pointing to
the dictionaries of CocoAspell Preference Pane.

ispell-extra-args's value is nil
exec-path's value is
("/Users/pete/bin" "/usr/bin" "/bin" "/usr/sbin" "/sbin"
"/usr/X11R6/bin" "/usr/local/bin" "/sw/bin"
"/usr/local/teTeX/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin-current"
"/Applications/EmacsJCVS.app/Contents/MacOS/libexec"
"/Applications/EmacsJCVS.app/Contents/MacOS/bin")

Carbon Emacs inherits PATH from settings in ~/.MacOSX/environment.plist.
It looks as if ispell-local-dictionary has to be set to make ispell
work -- at least a bit. I have to check my .emacs file why some
settings do not get used ...
