Flanked Through Cover

Version 1.5, PC.
Gotcha Again, Perfect Information for LW2, A Better AWC LW2, Commander's Choice, Smooth Scrolling, Additional Icons, Cost Based Ability Colours, Uniforms Manager, and a few cosmetic mods.
Operation Gatecrasher, I've started a conflict with every pod on the map. The first pod is wiped out, the second pod took cover in a church, and the third came in from the side. The Sectoid died immediately, but the Engineer with it took cover. I moved into the side of the church to flank it, set up in High/Low cover toward it/to the left. Turn ends, the Engineer fired on the flanking XCOM and Perfect Information displayed the hit at 87%, which dealt 3(1 soaked by ablative) damage. On my turn, it says the XCOM was flanked and still is, despite the camera still displaying them as being on a Cover tile.
When originally put into this position, he was displayed and animated as being in cover, and only changed when the Aliens took their turn, at which point they fired and hit him. I'm not sure how to replicate this issue, though I've seen it happen before, albeit very rarely.
