7D/LR2.5 weird sky colors

I am processing my first shots from the shootout/first 7D RAWs. I have some lighthouse shots that had areas of the sky blown out. When I try recovering them either by changing exposure or with the recovery tool, I get pink! These shots are from 10 a.m. on a very grey day, I doubt there is any pink in the sky at all. I don't know where it is from, or how to deal with it.
Thoughts or suggestions please!
The first shot has been edited - changed WB to 5000 (was 6K out of camera), messed with exposure, recovery, saturation, added a gradient. I am not unhappy with the result but also do not mean to suggest this is what it should look like!
The second shot is less edited, WB with the eye dropper using the house as reference, and is 7200.
The third shot is not edited at all, but the minute I change anything there is a distinct bright pink (almost posterized) band in the sky.
Is this a problem with the software, with my eyes, with my monitor?

Until then you're stuck with DPP3.7 in situations like these...
