Comment(by BoneBreaker):

 Yes I did, that's where a user said renaming the php dll solved his
 problem.

 What I'd consider to try fixing this problem:

 * if Pidgin installed GNU Aspell (probably the case for most Windows
 users), then I guess it should be able to actually *know* where to look
 for the right dll just installed.

 * if for some reason it can't fetch that variable, then check the dll
 version, if incorrect gracefully disable aspell with a warning message
 instead of crashing Pidgin.
