Description
It is easy to see that if a curved line is "perfect" (example: an arc done with the "cad tools" plugin) then the curved labels are correctly rendered. If the curved line is quite smooth but made of just a few nodes, then the curved labels are not rendered as expected.
As an example of working curves use the attached shape. As an example of not working curves you can use https://issues.qgis.org/attachments/4183/labels_test.zip

Actually the problem is elsewhere: if the label width does not fit to the linestring length, it will not be added with curved placement. A solution could be to have an option to place the labels even if they do not fit - the engine would pretend that the first and last segment are "infinite"
