Whoa, that's it! I had aspell (with aspell-de and aspell-en) and hunspell 
installed (with myspell-de). But myspell-en was missing. I installed it, and 
now it's working! Thanks for the hint. Turns out that I was missing 'en' in 
$LINUGUAS, so it's quite my own fault.

But still, my test account has no automatic spell checking capability (I 
logged out and in again). And manual checking also works for American 
English, not for German. But as it's only a test account, so I close the 
case :)
