How to mark hop additions with 10 min or less in the boil?

If I'm adding hops with 10 min or less in the boil for aroma, should I mark them in BeerSmith as being added for "Aroma" or "Boil"?  If I mark aroma no IBU's are added and if I mark boil they are.  Which is correct?  I'm guessing boil?
 
Yes, in theory some extraction of bitterness should occur if boiled.  I think "aroma only" would apply for flame-out, post flame-out, and dry hopping.

That's what I was thinking.  Thank you!
 
If they are boiled (even a few minutes) they should be marked as boil - aroma is for after flame out.
