I believe this appearance is due to the new beam collision avoiding code. 
This currently works with manual beams - hence the longer stems on your 
manually beamed notes which do not collide with the accidental.  It does not 
currently work with automatic beams - hence the shorter stems on your 3rd 
set of notes, and the resulting collision with the natural sign.
