I agree, it's never been an issue for me either - more problematic is a reiteration of the same note later in the 2nd measure, and whether the measure rule applies from the tied note. But still the courtesy accidental is always the safe road. (I do like "curtsy" accidental though :-) - perhaps something in a French Overture?)
I can't recall where I've read this, but I'm sure a search of Stone or Read or Ross will support it -- the later note in the second measure requires an accidental. The rule about accidentals working throughout the measure only applies when there has been an actual accidental placed in the measure. Since with tied notes, there isn't an accidental placed in front of the tied note in the second measure, there isn't an actual accidental to carry through the measure, thus the need for an accidental in front of that later note in that measure.
