Your first hypothesis must be correct as:

$ ls -ldR /usr/share/themes/Xfce-dusk/
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Feb 11 02:23 /usr/share/themes/Xfce-dusk/
$ ls -ld /usr/share/themes/Xfce-dusk/
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Feb 11 02:23 /usr/share/themes/Xfce-dusk/
$ ls -lR /usr/share/themes/Xfce-dusk/
/usr/share/themes/Xfce-dusk/:
total 4
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Feb 11 02:23 gtk-2.0

/usr/share/themes/Xfce-dusk/gtk-2.0:
total 8
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5292 May 21  2013 gtkrc
$

I guess then I need to create a gtk3 version of Xfce-dusk.

Thanks for your help,
