Are you quite sure that " the DE can't affect window position"? I would guess that it can and does.
As I'm sure you know, XFCE4 comes with its own WM, xfwm4.
I have at various times in the past run XFCE (on Ubuntu) without sawfish, and currently run sawfish on archlinux with no official DE ( I find sawfish with its programmability is sufficient for all desktop needs), so I can't speak to your combination, but I suggest that, at least for testing purposes, you try turning off XFCE and see if your problem persists.
Cheers, John

I just tried every theme that on my system, which strangely is only 9
themes, and does not include blue-steel. That's also a bit strange
since I've seen that in the past. I guess Fedora is stingy with what
themes it supplies by default.
Every theme showed the same bug, even one of the themes that had a
super thin border. The windows seem to move by the same pixel count
regardless of theme.
I looked through my ~/.sawfish/custom file and it does not appear to
contain any customization that would cause this. I cam attaching my
custom file if that can help someone else spot the problem.
I am running XFCE4, but I am pretty sure the DE can't affect window
position -- that's a WM function, right? There was talk in the F42
release notes about XFCE updates for wayland, however (of course) I am
not running wayland.
Seems like such a tiny bug, but in reality watching my (dozens of)
windows slowly "walk" to the left side of my screen -- across 3
monitors! -- is going to make me insane after a few days!
