Release Candidate 2 for Aspell 0.60.7 is now available at:
    ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/aspell/aspell-0.60.7-rc2.tar.gz

I have been very busy with other things and I failed to ship 0.60.7 after=
 the=20
last release candidate, however things have settled down for me now. I pl=
an to=20
release 0.60.7 by the end of July.

Changes from Release Candidate 1:

    =E2=80=A2 Fix a bug that caused Aspell to crash with a SEGFAULT when =
built
      with mingw-w64.
    =E2=80=A2 Compile and bug fixes.

Changes from 0.60.6.1:

    =E2=80=A2 Add partial support for recognizing the Unicode apostrophe =
(=E2=80=99) in
      words.  In particular Aspell will accept the Unicode apostrophe
      when the language uses an ISO Latin charset that doesn=E2=80=99t al=
ready
      have a Unicode apostrophe.  For now, Aspell will still use the
      ASCII version in suggestions.
    =E2=80=A2 Detect when a dictionary compiled on a 32-bit machine is us=
ed on a
      64-bit one (and vise versa), as due to an oversight, compiled
      dictionaries depend on more than the endianness.  Also added a
      compile time option to remove this dependency, but at the cost of
      breaking compatibility with already compiled dictionaries on 64-bit
      systems.
    =E2=80=A2 Fix a bug which caused Aspell to crash when passing in a nu=
ll
      string to almost any of the C API functions.  This should not
      happen if the size is also zero as the pointer should never be
      derefrenced.
    =E2=80=A2 In addition to outputting a warning when building with NDEB=
UG
      defined, also include NDEBUG in the version string.
    =E2=80=A2 Various compile fixes for newer version of Gcc and Clang.
    =E2=80=A2 Fix VPATH builds.
    =E2=80=A2 Use utf-8 encoding for manual instead of iso-8859-1.
    =E2=80=A2 Other minor updates and bug fixes.
