Problem:
The Jove 4.14 `spell-buffer' command produces weird results when
the current buffer is not associated with a file.
Repeat-by:
Do a `C-X ! some-shell-command', then invoke the spell command
on the resulting buffer.
Analysis:
If the current buffer has no file name, SpelBuffer() passes the
command `spell (null)' to the shell.
Workaround:
Apply the patch below. If the current buffer has no file name,
SpelBuffer now forces put_bufs() to ask for a file name and to
write the current buffer to file (even if it was not modified).
