Creative Commons licenses are technically for always and forever. It's kind of annoying that Flickr doesn't have more notification for the user to this effect.Unfortunately, Flickr makes it trivial to change the licensing for all photos by a user retroactively. [...] What are our legal obligations? Do we have to retroactively delete these photos, or can we state that, since they were once flagged as being e.g. CC-BY, they can be assumed to always be CC-BY, no matter what Flickr says?
I probably wouldn't insist on the matter, though. If the licensor really doesn't want you to use the work, why go out of your way to use it? There's too much other Free Stuff out there to make a big deal about it.
If you want to get super-fancy, maybe when you detect a change in the license for a photo you've used, send Flickr notification to the photographer, and let them know how they could request to get the photo taken down.
