If it's been fixed, it hasn't been fixed in a wholly consistent sense.
If I recall, it's being healed for 100% of your maximum health, but the problem with Benediction is that overhealing doesn't count towards that.

So when you have 100,000 Max HP, living dead sits you at 1/100,000, and Benediction heals you for 100,000, but 1 of that didn't count.

99,999/100,000 = dead.

It is generally not a problem because a soul eater is likely to be used during battle, you're going to be taking damage during battle, and thus the 1 hp deficit isn't an issue.

But the fact that it remains a problem is always a sore point.
