Nope. This was a new feature of git-gui 0.10; we now launch an
aspell session in the background via a bi-directional pipe and
use it to spell check the commit message area on the fly. The
reason Git 1.5.4 doesn't have this problem is because it ships
with git-gui 0.9.x, which doesn't have this spell check.
I'm not sure why your system is hanging. I've used git-gui 0.10
on Mac OS 10.4, 10.5 and Windows without any issues for many weeks
prior to the 1.5.5 release. Doesn't mean there isn't possibly
something wrong here, I just had thought this was pretty stable
code at this point.

aspell --mode=none --encoding=UTF-8 pipe <<EOF

$$cr master
