Strange hip "folding" at extreme (but reasonable) angles

Pics and video both SFW.

A picture is worth a thousand words: http://oi47.tinypic.com/2affynr.jpg

Excuse the strange angle and no texture, I left it in the pose it was in when it made the issues. I had zombie textures on it, but removed them and the rest of the scene because it made the issue less noticeable.

If a picture is worth a thousand words, here's 20,000 words in a small 1 second youtube clip:

The issue comes up every now and then and sometimes takes out the hipbone too. This one isn't too bad as far as they go. Normally it happens when I have figures posed in crouching positions with their leg bend/side-side dials maxed out for their normal limits. The issue usually persists afterwards until I reload the figure into the scene (sometimes a huge PITA when I haven't saved in a while).

Edit: More information:
DS4.5
V5
Evolution Morphs (from the V5 bundle)

Thanks!

    The TinyPic link you provided doesn't show any image. It may just be my machine, but this seems to be a common problem with external file hosts like PhotoBucket and such. I would recommend that you post your image here in the thread -- there's an option for it.

    Anyhow, I'll bet you're referring to the nasty crease in Genesis's thigh, at the juncture between the topmost front of the thigh and the pelvis, right? That's been with Genesis from the very start, and I haven't come across anything that fixes it. Zev0 and CJ-Studio have a couple of items available for Genesis's hips and legs, but I'm really not impressed with the ones I've tried, and they did nothing to fix this particular problem.

    As I see it, there are probably only two real solutions: 1. use a D-Former (magnet) to smooth it out, if you can. 2. Send it to ZBrush and attempt to smooth it out there.

    Sorry...
