The .dat [1] file may include rule for special characters. This is mine:

special         - -*- ' -*- ª --* º --* µ **-

You could have something like:

special         . --*

The downside of declaring the dot as part of the word is that, when a
mispelled word is near a dot, the dot is removed when aspell corrects
the word [2].
