There's a different set of problems with that though.

Your scenario doesn't have people who transferred their lot to a new plot to factor into whatever solution they come up with.

Your analogy is flawed.

If they can't rollback JUST the housing districts to a point after the bidding closed and before the winner drawn, then there is no perfect solution. Those who won a lot should keep them, the sole bidders should be given their plots, and the bidding reopened once they've fixed the bug.
