Sorry, I still can't reproduce the problem.  Here's what I did: I 
created a .emacs file with the contents above, I created a text file 
foo.txt, and I started emacs from an xterm window by typing "emacs 
foo.txt".  emacs started up and give me the following message in the 
mode line:

   Starting new Ispell process [/usr/bin/aspell::default] ...

Spell checking works as expected.

Maybe strace would give you some clue as to what's going on.
