They're based on hunspell, which doesn't list that word as a
misspelling:

$ hunspell -a
@(#) International Ispell Version 3.2.06 (but really Hunspell 1.3.2)
interpretor

I have an attempt to convert Vim to using libenchant instead of its
custom spell-checker, but I haven't had time to finish it.  Vim's
mechanism differs a bit from what other implementations do and I haven't
figured out how I want to resolve those differences yet.
