Should this be filed as a bug?
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.
