The problem occurs because your partition is mounted as text and by default
ispell doesn't do an explicit binary open of the hash file.
A version of ispell where this problem is taken care of is available
on ftp.franken.de
in /pub/win32/develop/gnuwin32/cygwin32/porters/Humblet_Pierre_A
as ispell.tar.gz
