Would like to add that this behavior can be seen not only in title bar. Some 
programs (gedit for example) and certain gtk elements (as drop-down menus) also 
has wrong subpixel antialiasing. Changing setting between "rgb" and "bgr" in 
"/org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/xsettings/rgba-order" makes no difference 
for cases mentioned above. But when changing to "vrgb" or "vbgr" there is 
visible difference. It looks like some internal gnome or gtk setting is hard 
set to "bgr" and doesn't get value of "rgb" in any case. Turning monitor and 
picture 180 degrees confirms this statement - the text is smooth and without 
any color edges.
In attached screenshot you can see examples of this bug. There is picture of 
UbuntuTweak window, Cairo Dock tooltip and comparison between text rendering in 
gedit and leafpad. When you zoom image you can see that in first three cases 
text have red color shifted to the right, though it has to be shifted to the 
left.
