Hi Gary,
as far as I know the Dll which comes with lyx is a very old
version of aspell. Currently we at lyx try to use the cvs
version on windows, but aspell-cvs is broken, I've filed
a bug report but there was no reaction.

Do you have you patches against the cvs version of aspell?
We have a build system and patches in the lyx repository
and we could also host your patches.

Cheers,
Peter
