Projectiles leaving decals in pawn bounding boxes

I've been planning to post this a long time. Now I finally got to it.

When I shoot a projectile with very high speed (like 50,000) and bonelevel = true towards a pawn so that it hits the bounding box but not the pawn itself, the decal appears on the outer side of the pawn's bounding box instead of the wall behind the pawn (where it belongs). I'm just curious, can this be fixed or do I simply have to use lower speeds for projectiles? With speeds like 5000 it happens rarely.

***EDIT***
Oh yeah, I'm using the latest RF release with Federicos physics.

Framerate also seems to have an effect here. The lower the framerate the more often the problem occurs.

I think it's a problem with Genesis3d collision. When your speed is high enough (and you have a low framerate) you can go through thin walls and even fly out of the level.
