Sometimes in flyspell-mode, the mode line still says "Fly", but no
more flychecking is actually performed. I cannot yet reproduce it
reliably; however, if you add the following to your .emacs:

   (defun my-flyspell-check ()
     (when flyspell-mode
       (unless (memq 'flyspell-post-command-hook post-command-hook)
         (with-current-buffer (get-buffer-create "flywarn")
           (insert "flychecking inactive despite flyspell-mode!\n"))
         (display-buffer  "flywarn"))))

   (setq flycheck-timer (run-with-timer 0 0.5 'my-flyspell-check))

you will be informed when flyspell mode is superficially active, but
no checking is actually performed. I only encountered the problem once
since I have the above code in my .emacs, and then I also saw:
"Invalid search bound (wrong side of point)" in *Messages*, which I
previously probably missed. Thus I think this could for example happen
when switching buffers or using the minibuffer at the wrong time.

It is clear that flyspell-post-command-hook must be removed from
post-command-hook in case of errors; if the error is hard to catch in
the hook, I would already find it an improvement if flyspell mode were
cleanly disabled (existing underlines, mode line, ...) in such cases.
