Help with OpenXSpell (and Enchant) on Leopard

I'm about at my wits' end!

Under Snow Leopard (10.6), I am installing a custom spellcheck  
dictionary for Cornish in /Library/Spelling/ -- Hunspell is built into  
the Mac OS.

I have a friend with an old machine who has to use Leopard (10.5), and  
so Hunspell won't work.. I am told.. but I can use OpenXSpell.

Except that I can't find out how to install it.

The OpenXSpell installer says this:

=====
OpenXSpell -- Open Source spell checking service for Mac OS X
Cornelis Swanepoel <[email protected]>

It is required to have completed the installation steps as outlined in
http://www.cygnusblack.co.uk/openxspell/install.html

This includes installing
* MacPorts
* Enchant (via MacPorts)
* At least one spell checking backend, Hunspell is recommended (via  
MacPorts)

For further information see the OpenXSpell home page:
http://www.cygnusblack.co.uk/openxspell/
and the OpenXSpell SF.net project page:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/openxspell/

To report OpenXSpell bugs, please use the tools available on the  
OpenXSpell SF.net project page.
ALL feedback will be appreciated.

Now the first problem is that there are no instructions at http://www.cygnusblack.co.uk/openxspell/install.html 
  and Cornelis Swanepoel has not responded to e-mail. So I tried to do  
it manually.

I went to MacPorts, which said I had to have XCode installed.  
(Naturally I downloaded the newest one, which won't work on Leopard,  
but I got the right one eventually.) I installed XCode, and I  
installed MacPorts.

Then the instructions say I have to install Enchant "via MacPorts". I  
could not find any information on the MacPorts site about Enchant. I  
came here, and can't find a Mac installer for Enchant.

Then I am supposed to install Hunspell "via MacPorts".

Perhaps I don't know what "via" means here. I have tried to get some  
information from the MacPorts side but no luck there.

Can anyone help? Thanks.
