You are correct.
See the post by William Rohrer about what to do.
You are going to force them to be ambiguous and then you have to fill in

This field exists because incorrect prefix assignments are made or

According to the official prefix assignment ALL should be as follows,
FO French Polynesia
FO0A Austral
FO0M Marquesas
But I guess this is not followed so it plays havoc with programs like this.
