Subject: Can't open american.hash

Hello!

The CVS version of Abiword for GTK compiled on RedHat 7.0 keeps printing
"Can't open american.hash"

As far as I understand, this comes from the linit() function in
abi/src/other/spell/xp/lookup.c

It prints exactly the filename that it tried to open, which means that it
tries to open "american.hash" without the full path.

Actually, AP_PREF_DEFAULT_SpellDirectory is defined but never used.
AP_PREF_KEY_SpellDirectory is used only in the Win32, BeOS and QNX
frontends.

The fix should be something like what I'm attaching, but it doesn't work
since lookup.c is written in C, not C++, hence no getAbiSuiteLibDir().

Pavel Roskin
