Whenever I tried to change my 'spelllang' to French, I would get an
error.
:set spelllang=fr
:set spell
resulted in:
E763: Word characters differ between spell files

The problem stems from the English spellfiles Vim was using. Since I use
the system Vim installed on Mac OS X 10.8.5, the spellfiles were out of
date and caused the error.
To fix the error, I've downloaded the latest (as of today) English
spellfiles into my `.vim`. Vim will use these instead of the system
spellfiles.
In order to download these new spellfiles, I followed these steps:
$ cd $VIMRUNTIME
$ sudo chmod 000 spell/
$ vim
: set spell
: " Follow the download prompts
: quit
$ sudo chmod 755 spell/
