In theory, it's simple: Tied notes keep their alteration(s), and any
new note in a new measure loses its alteration(s). In practise, my
choir conductor got it wrong, stating that a new note on the second
line from the bottom (or 'g' in a G clef) would be a g# because a tied
g# led into the measure. Even though a few measure earlier there was
an example of almost the same situation, but with a natural sign
before the 2nd note in the measure...

So, indeed, put both the cautionary flat and cautionary natural sign
in in this case, just to make it clear what's to be played (or sung)!
