Buttons Are Disheveled on xfce4-panel 4.14.3

Hi, everyone. With xfce4-panel 4.14.3, the Applications Menu button is incongruously non-square, i.e., its vertical length is longer than the horizontal length; whereas with xfce4-panel 4.14.1, it was square along with all the other buttons other than the Clock button (which is non-square due to the length of the text within it).

Also, the icon buttons in the Notification Area are not centered when the "Show frame" option is checked, but are instead shifted to the bottom right.

Here is a screenshot of how said elements appear with xfce4-panel 4.14.3:

It doesn't matter what theme I have tested this with, the results are the same.

And here is a screenshot of said elements' congruous appearance with xfce4-panel 4.14.1 (the Notification Area "Show frame" option with this version does nothing):

I filed the following bug-report on this issue:

My present solution is to downgrade to xfce4-panel 4.14.1. But if anyone knows how to get the old congruous behavior with xfce4-panel 4.14.3 then that would also be useful to know. Thank you for your time on this matter.
