I am not a member of the utf-8 list so you need to CC me.  I found you 
email in the archive.

Does the number of characters exceed 128? 256?  If it fits in 8-bits than 
you can just make up a character set as it is only used internally.   With 
Aspell 0.50 this may be a bit of a pain, but with Aspell 0.51 it should be 
easier as all input and output can be utf-8.
