No,

Actually you did not run Flightcrew in Sigil-0.9.0, Your ran sanitycheck. If you want to run FlightCrew you must load its plugin and launch it. Sanitycheck just checks if the source is parseable, it is **not** an epub2 validator. If you want to validate in Sigil-0.9.0 you must load either the epubcheck plugin or the flightcrew plugin.

As for the u tag, it exists in html4 but is deprecated, it exists in xhtml 1.0, it does not exist in xhtml 1.1, but now it is back in html5, xhtml5 but with a more restricted meaning and use.

Flightcrew uses the official xhtml 1.1.dtd when validating the epub and it does not allow the u tag.

Hope this explains things.
