#7875: Pidgin should add Aspell location to its App Paths Windows registry entry

Component: unclassified | Version: 2.5.3
Keywords: aspell crash |
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
Many people have experienced Win32 Pidgin crashing on startup due to
Aspell DLL conflicts (see ticket:7853 and ticket:7750 for examples).
Pidgin is already creating a registry key at
{{{HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\pidgin.exe}}}.
All it need do is append the location of the correct Aspell DLL to the
"Path" key and crash-free behavior is guaranteed. This location can be
copied from the "Path" key at {{{HKLM\SOFTWARE\Aspell}}} if present.
