There's something wrong in creating the thermal for the oblong pad in the
attached picture. Left side: 5.0.2. Right: includes your commit. Tested on
Linux.

Here's also the footprint, taken from the board file:

BTW, highlighting items in pcbnew seems to be broken, maybe because of the
new "real-time highlighting" for delete tool. The delete tool highlight
doesn't highlight tracks. The older selection clarification and DCR dialog
item highlighting don't work well, only some things are highlighted
sometimes. This happens with
