Ah, indeed. Would the following have set it so:
(setq default-buffer-file-coding-system 'no-conversion)
What would be the best (i.e., least intrusive) setting to use here?

I would suggest not setting it at all. Emacs is pretty good at figuring
out what coding system to use when saving a buffer.

They work for me.

No. /usr/lib/aspell-0.60/ contains files *.cset corresponding to valid
encodings. The question is why aspell thinks the encoding is "nil". My
guess is that something in your initialization files is causing this.
Do you still have the problem with 'emacs -Q'?

ispell-message and ispell-region fail in Emacs with the following
message:
==
Starting new Ispell process /usr/bin/aspell with default dictionary...
ispell-init-process: Error: The encoding "nil" is not known. This could also mean that the file "/usr/lib/aspell-0.60/nil.cset" could not be opened for reading or does not exist.
==
The file, /usr/lib/aspell-0.60/nil.cset, indeed does not exist.
Should it?
The stand-alone aspell works fine.
