 setting ispell-base-dicts-override-alist no longer working
Date: Wed, 02 May 2018 21:20:02 +0200

A recipe for testing. Putting the following code in a file 
ispell-test.el and running ‘emacs -Q l ispell-test.el‘ gives a 
positive result for ispell.el byte-compiled without 
lexical-binding and negative result with lexical binding.
It also works to just add (defvar 
ispell-base-dicts-override-alist) in ispell.el.

--------------------
(load-library "ispell")

(add-hook 'ispell-initialize-spellchecker-hook 
#'ispell-extra-dicts-test)

(defun ispell-extra-dicts-test ()
 (setq ispell-base-dicts-override-alist
       '(("en_GB,sv_SE"
          "[[:alpha:]]" "[^[:alpha:]]"
          "[’'´.0-b:-]" t ("-d" "en_GB,sv_SE")
          nil utf-8))))

(ispell-set-spellchecker-params)

(if (assoc "en_GB,sv_SE" ispell-dictionary-alist)
   (message "It worked!")
 (message "it didn’t work"))
