Using the demo editor, I see the following code being generated:

<form action="send" method="get" name="mform">
    <input name="msubmit" type="submit" value="submit" />
</form>


The input tag needs to be wrapped inside of a p tag. So, the editor is 
generating invalid syntax. You can get around it by hitting enter in the 
form area after first creating a form, but before adding form elements. 
The FCK module passes its contents through the clean xslt and a change 
could be made there to make sure the form content is wrapped in  a p or 
similar tag.

I did the last round of compatibility with FCKEditor, and we never had a 
need for forms, so that part was never tested. I've posted a bug to 
remind me for the next time I have time to work on this. If you come up 
with a solution, feel free to pass it along.
