The workaround from Numix is not using the shadow drawing of Murrine but
the one that is (totally superfluously) coded into xfdesktop4.
You can also see this issue with Greybird in the Alt-tab dialog of
xfwm4, so it's definitely an issue with Murrine and working around it in
shimmer-themes is possible, but will only help if we also drop all text-
shadow from everywhere else (and I'm not even talking about other themes
that might be using this Murrine function).
(Easy way to reproduce: Open a few different windows, one of them being
the xfce4-terminal, then use "alt-tab" to cycle and when your focus hits
the terminal - boom, text-shadow with weird offset.)

Bug description:
Upgraded my xubuntu 16.04 system on 01 Jul 2016. The apt update
included an upgrade to gtk2-engines-murrine. However, after the
upgrade and boot, the any desktop text, folder, launcher, etc. had a
problem with the text and shadow being quite far apart.
This bug affects themes that use the textstyle feature of the murrine
engine on xfdesktop4. Ubuntu MATE 16.04, which also uses gtk2 but has
caja draw the desktop icons instead of xfdesktop, is not affected.
The only known affected theme packaged in Xubuntu 16.04 is numix-gtk-
theme. Third-party affected themes include Arc and Vertex.
