Flyspell-region bug

[Slawomir Nowaczyk]

Hello,

I think there is a small problem in flyspell.el. If you evaluate the
following two expressions in this buffer:

(setq flyspell-large-region 1)
(flyspell-buffer)

Washington washington

the uncapitalised version is not marked as misspelled -- while it
should be. The following patch corrects the immediate problem:

Nevertheless, I find it somewhat disturbing that flyspell *did not*
complain but silently decided to ignore the misspelling ispell
reported...

Wouldn't it be better to at least show a message when this happens?
