Public bug reported:

I'm using Ubutu 16.10 dev with bash 4.3-15ubuntu1 and I'm noticing that
bash caches the path of a command if the current bash instance
successfully finds it in the $PATH environment variable. But after this
caching happened if the file gets missing but reappears at another
location bash claims just that the file is in the old path missing. I
think in this case bash should withdraw the related cache entry and
search again in the $PATH environment variable.
