The boundarychars are defined for each language separately. In emacs in
ispell-dictionary-alist which has an entry for each language, and in ispell
the program in the affix file. The two should agree, otherwise you may get
problems, not only with flyspell, but also with ispell itself. For some
reason there are different values in emacs and ispell the program for
French. Of course having the same information in two places is not a
recommended practice in computer science. It would be better if for example
emacs could query ispell for the required parameters, but ispell doesn't
offer that functionality AFAIK.
