Lonesome Road DLC ending, esoteric bug

[Scythe Bearer]

At the end of the Lonesome Road DLC, the player is given the opportunity to add one to any Special Attribute. 

The bug ... If all Special Attributes are already 10, the player is stuck, you cannot exit the dialog without adding 1 to a Special Attribute.  And that is where the infamous Catch-22 rears it's ugly head. 

I am NOT a quest wizard, by any stretch of the imagination, so any help fixing this bug would be appreciated. 

Edit: The circumvention was to go to a prior save, issue the console command player.setav luck 9 and replay about three minutes of the game.
