It should be possible to disable the automatic displaying of and aligning to the guides that show up when you move and/or resize elements on a diagram.

Could you please provide information about where to fix this manually in the meantime?

While checking for a possibility I found that there is a method isShowGuides() in the tool behavior provider that you can override to return false and disables the guides in the diagram.

That finding reduces this bug to checking why there is an additional field at the diagram object which is never queried and eventually deleting that field.

If guides shall be shown is controlled by the method isShowGuides() in thr tool behaviour provider.
The attribute showGuides at the diagram object is not necessary. Unfortunatly it cannot be removed completely, otherwise old diagrams cannot be read any more.
I have kept the attribute in Diagram, but marked it as deprecated and have removed the getter and setter methods for it.

Checked in to head and pushed to Eclipse:
