AbiWord 3.0

I just compiled AbiWord 3.0 from source on a Debian 7.01 system.

This was my ./configure command:

  ./configure --enable-plugins --enable-builtin-plugins --enable-clipart 
--with-gio --with-champlain --with-libtidy --enable-templates

This is the result of that command:

Configuration:
   host                  i686-pc-linux-gnu
   dynamic binary        yes
   static binary         no
   platform              unix (embedded: no)
   toolkit               gtk
   debug                 no

Optional features:
   menubutton            no
   printing              yes
   spell checking        yes
   status bar            yes
   emacs keybinding      yes
   vi keybinding         yes
   clipart               yes
   templates             yes

Optional dependencies:
   gio			yes
   gsf-gio               yes
   goffice               no
   redland               yes
   evolution_data_server no
   libical               yes
   champlain             yes

The 'make' and 'make install' commands executes with no problems.

When I tried to run abiword, it wouldn't execute. issuing the 'abiword' 
command from a terminal generated a "libabiword-3.0... not found."

Debian stable has a libabiword 2.9.something-dev. I installed that, and 
now AbiWord runs.

The problem: Where's the spell checker? According to the Configuration 
list, spell checking is enabled. There are no spell check buttons on the 
toolbar, nor is there any mention of Check Spelling in the tools menu.

Even with this minor inconvenience, though, it's nice to finally see 
3.0. Thank you for all your hard work.
