It isn't the Hunspell issue, it's an issue with the dictionary.  What
does your en_US.aff file says in the WORDCHARS line(s)?  See the
function ispell-parse-hunspell-affix-file which parses the Hunspell
aff files.

On my system, there's no issue with "don't" (and the apostrophe in
general).

Eventually, the dictionary's entry in the ispell.el's DB is what
matters.  What do you have there?
