my guess is that this might work with english LANG but not with "de_DE.UTF-8" . Will have to check what it does woth LANG=C after this report.

this has nothing todo with $LANG.

It says. "In order to get spell-checking you need to have libenchant installed with at least one dictionary" I have also installed aspell-de because i thought it might miss a dictionary. No success. What does it need to work?

There is also an issue with Abiword. it says it can not find the dictionary. So this is NOT an xchat-problem. Something with enchant.

Spell checking in xchat-gnome works for me in english.

enchant=1.1.6-1-1

Any ideas?

I see a list of locales, only 4

en, en_GB, en_CA, en_US

So all english. Did you verify you have enchant installed?

My guess is those are the only locales supported, we should investigate that.
