It looks like configure is failing to find
Aspell/Pspell. I'm using the exact same configure
check for this as GnomeSpell. It could be libtool
issues - try with CC=g++ ./configure, or configure
--with-aspell=/path/to/aspell
FWIW, it works great for me on RH8. If you do find the
problem (and you're more likely to, since I don't have
direct access to any RH9 machine), please send a
patch.
If you're interested in getting this to work, install
an Ispell dictionary in ~/.enchant/ispell.
BTW, GnomeSpell just checked in my patch on a branch -
since Enchant could be considered a Gnome-based
project, you might do well using that instead, as it
also gains you a nice front end as well.
