Comment:

 Simply adding the language to the spell checker is not enough. The spell
 check backend is GoogleSpell in a default installation, So you're limited
 to the languages which that supports (Which I cant find a list of, nor any
 official documentation).

 You'll find the spellchecker config in {{{\wp-
 includes\js\tinymce\plugins\spellchecker\config.php}}}

 Given this is related to external parties, I'm tempted to say that this is
 not something which WordPress can deal with directly (Its a 3rd party
 library - TinyMCE, dealing with a 3rd party spell check service - Google,
 and the code has been untouched for 2 years).. However, Setting to Future
 Release as its highly unlikely anything will be done about this in the
 short term for 2.9.
