Some (old) versions of Hunspell had a bug, whereby the mis-spelled
words were reported with offsets in bytes, not in characters. When
this happens, ispell.el reports "misalignment" errors.
I don't remember when (or even if) Hunspell fixed that problem (in the
version I use I fixed it myself), but if 1.7.0 has that problem fixed,
you will not see the problem.
