Yes, you are right, but in this case, as it is a custom system, maybe,
I'm not sure, I have made a mistake in the installation process, and two
config files has been created for each style theme. And when the
xfce4-terminal searches the config file chooses the .css one and fails. But
not only in one theme but in all the themes from Xfce and Xfce-4.0 to
Xfce-winter fail. I've had the precaution of updating the sources of themes
(for example gtk-xfce-engine, awaita, tango -icon-themes, etc) and gtk+-2 y
3.

On the other side, using only the gtkrc files everything looks well. That's
why I suppose that all those .css shoudn't be there, more than trying to fix
them.
