I believe it's a dependency issue related to the GNU Aspell library. You need the library installed along with its development headers. On Ubuntu Linux I installed the following packages via sudo apt-get:

• libtext-aspell-perl
• libpspell-dev

libpspell-dev brought in another dependency at the same time: libaspell-dev

Once I got those packages installed your snippet no longer produced the error you reported, for Perl 5.14.0.
