gnome-terminal is a Gnome3 app. I would expect it to be GTK3. Whereas
XFCE is not GTK3. In fact AFAIK the XFCE spin actively tries to stay
away from GTK3 apps. Maybe this has something to do with your problem?

I find the terminal emulator included with XFCE (terminal) equally
functional. Actually I even find the defaults more sensible to my
tastes. Is there any reason you prefer gnome-terminal?
