Rendering error on component diagram require/provide interface connection

The minimal example bellow shows a rendering error between a require interface and a provided interface connections:

As you can see there's a straight line between the interface and the interface require, it looks like this -(-O instead of the correct -(O

Changing order of declaration of nodes, edges may fix this, but still this shouldn't be happening.

This problem is also really annoying me and is not limited to a continuation of the straight line. Just try to add some text on the line and it is even worse.

@startuml
component X
interface A
interface B
interface C
interface D
X -left-( A: xxx
X -up-( B: xxx
X -right-( C: xxx
X -down-( D: xxx

Could we have a fix for that rendering problem? It was perfectly working some years ago, but as I want to use new PlantUML features, I updated the version I was using and see now regressions.

Best regards.

Ok, thanks for the report.
This should be fixed in last beta http://beta.plantuml.net/plantuml.jar
Tell us if it's not working for you!

This is fixing the problem. Thank you.
However, I can now see some overlap of the interface text on the other objects. See example below. "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" is now overlapping the component boxes.

@startuml
component "Component\nA" as A
component "Component\nB" as B
interface "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" as X
A -right-( X
B -left-() X
@enduml

Is it a known evolution or should this also be fixed?

Best regards.
