Yes it's a strange effect indeed... I tried this by removing all color settings 
from 
Emacs.plist and .emacs, after that I set the colors (with transparency) only in 
default-frame-alist and initial-frame-alist. The shadow behind the text still 
remains...

A light background and a dark foreground make things a lot better. The shadow 
behind 
the text is not so visible anymore... Although, if I get up-close to my 
monitor, I can 
still see the shadow...
