PCBnew 5.99: 3D viewer not displaying a board slot

Description

A slot in the PCB is not displayed in the 3D viewer. It used to work in the previous builds, not sure when it stopped working, perhaps a week ago or so.

Steps to reproduce

1 - Draw a board and a slot on the Edge.Cuts layer. Use the rectangle tool to make sure the slot ends are meeting properly.

2 - Turn on the 3D Viewer: the cut-out is not displayed.

3 - Interestingly enough, if you render the view with the Raytracer, the slot is correctly displayed.

I've attached the project for demonstration: TestDRC.zip
