When you move through an ally's square, does the soft cover they provide prevent enemies from taking AoOs?

Here are the contestants:
Code:
LL
LL
is Lana the Large Lillend with 10' reach.
C is Charlie the Cleric, who is 10' away from Lana.
F is Fred the Fighter, who is 20' from Lana behind Charlie. He wants to hit Lana with his longsword.

Here is the game board:
Code:
LL.C.F
LL....

If Fred passes through Charlie's square on the way up to base Lana, does he provoke an AoO from her?

Yes.

From the SRD:
Moving through a Square
Friend

You can move through a square occupied by a friendly character, unless you are charging. When you move through a square occupied by a friendly character, that character doesn’t provide you with cover.
