Contract fulfilled without actually fulfilling it?

Hi everyone! I'm just wondering if anyone else has encountered this issue (I'm still playing 1.0.5):

I had accepted two contracts of the grand tour type - one of them asking for the "Eve 3", the other for the "Ike 3" (if I remember correctly) challenge. The first contract asked for a flyby of Eve, Gilly, and Duna, and the second asked for a flyby of Mun, Duna, and Ike (again: iirc, I'm busy at work right now ;)). So, of course, I sent off an ultra-light probe to visit all of those destinations. Easy-peasy.

The strange thing was, that although I still had plenty of time to finish the contracts, and although I'm absolutely certain that none of my craft did visit all the mentioned locations, both contracts suddenly moved from "Active" to the "Archive" and were marked as "completed" (as opposed to "failed" or "aborted"). At this point, the craft I wanted to use for the contracts had passed by Mun, and had reached an orbit around Gilly, from where it should have continued to Duna at the next transfer window. Even more funny: When looking at the "completed" contracts only the "Flyby the Mun", "Flyby Eve", and "Flyby Gilly" parts were marked as "complete", the other goals were still labeled as being "incomplete".

Just before I noticed that said contracts had been marked as completed, I had landed another craft on Ike and then switched to the probe planned for said contracts in Gilly's orbit using Kerbal Alarm Clock.  So, I could imagine KSP getting confused by my switch from a craft that had performed a flyby of Duna and Ike directly to a craft that had done all other flyby contract parameters (without going through the Space Center scene).

As said, just asking if anyone else has seen this, as it was quite easy to mark the contract as active again by editing the save file.

Yup seen this a lot when switching crafts. Not quite deterministic, though. Not sure if KAC is relevant because since one can still switch craft without going back KSC in stock, I don't know, and I didn't dig further why it does this.
