Incorrect form 8949 handling for incorrect cost basis with Part 1 Box B checked

IRS instructions say enter B in column (f), put the correct basis in column (e), then enter -0- in column (g). If I use the corrected cost basis field in 1099-B input form, TurboTax fills in the difference in column (g), which is incorrect. If I override the cost basis field directly, TurboTax won't fill the column (f) (because it doesn't know anything is wrong). Any solutions?
