No, I think this is the intended behavior. Flyspell is not spell-checking
the whole buffer for you, only the words that you enter, edit, or are about
to edit (i.e. that the cursor is on). It is not like in MS WORD where all
misspelled words are marked. See the Emacs manual:
Flyspell mode is a fully-automatic way to check spelling as you edit
in Emacs. It operates by checking words as you change or insert them.
When it finds a word that it does not recognize, it highlights that
word. This does not interfere with your editing, but when you see the
highlighted word, you can move to it and fix it. Type `M-x
flyspell-mode' to enable or disable this mode in the current buffer.
