(I don’t know if you intentionally removed the bug tracker, but I’ve
put it back in.)

I wonder if it’s the internal border. It’s not properly supported on
the NS port for some reason, and therefore should always be the
background colour. But it defaults to 2 pixels. Try:

(set-frame-parameter nil 'internal-border-width 0)

It looks like it’s the same colour as the titlebar text, but that
might just be coincidence.

(By the way, your manoj-dark appears to be significantly different
