It is not XCSoar's priority to please the user with intuitive and expected calculation results; the first priority is to display correct results. What you found here is an interesting corner case indeed. Increasing MacCready will reduce the amount of height that needs to be circled to reach the target, because less time will be spent in thermals, and thus less wind drift will be experienced. The glide bar disappears because a solution is impossible within this MacCready range. Wind drift will be bigger than height gain while circling.
