Inline spell checker partially functioning

Recently updated to TB 24.3.0. The inline spelling checker seems to be only partially working in V24. When composing, at random, it flags SOME misspellings, but not all of them. On the misspellings that is misses, if I go back and add a letter to the misspelled word and delete the same letter, then it will properly flag the misspelling. It seems to be a problem with the mechanism that keeps track of which words have been checked. I did not see this issue in TB versions prior to 24. I'm running XP 32bit SP3. Is this the proper place to report this bug?

Thanks for everyone's hard work on TB.
