You need to provide a 404.html independent of whether you are using
flatpages.  Users can enter whatever they like in a browser address bar,
your site should respond with a sensible error message when they try to get
to a page that doesn't exist.

http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/3335

raised the issue of flatpages needing 404.html and was closed wontfix, so
I'd say the current behavior is intended.
