`ispell-complete-word' appears in the Spell Checking menu and is, in  
text-mode at least, bound to M-TAB, as C-h f/k will show.  However, it  
does not have its key binding listed in the menu.

Listing the correct key bindings in the menus is important - it's  
pretty difficult for newbies to learn these things otherwise.

This occurs with the old Carbon port (22) and with a recent build of  
Cocoa (23).

Fixed 2009/01/22 with changes to nsmenu.m: EmacsMenu.  Non-super  
keybindings are displayed as strings appended in parentheses, as in  
"Visit New File... (C-x C-f)".  This is ugly, however it seems that  
NSMenuItem will not accept multi-character strings for  
keyEquivalent.  If anyone can improve upon / work around this  
situation please go ahead.
