I just contacted Eric, who gave me fp/kv1j - gn17. What does the fp stroke mean? Do I enter this into AC Logger as kv1j without the fp/?

No! LOL!
FP/ means he was operating from a French territory off the coast of Canada called St. Pierre and Miquelon (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Pierre_and_Miquelon) . It's a separate DXCC country, and French soil, so (I imagine) he's operating under the CEPT agreement we have with most of Europe, hence the appended callsign.
Congratulations, that is a fine DX catch.
