Yes, this is a known issue! Your files has been correct encoded! FCP 
just complains sometimes about external encoded ProRes footage!
It seem to be that some missing header informations or other stupid 
missing informations let FCP think the file looks not compatible!

Stupid, but  real!
Since FFMBC is more broadcast orientated try to encode with FFMBC fork!
Maybe this has been solved there in the actual release!
