This might be gail, but it is just as likely that the root cause could be a
change in gtk+.

There was no premeditated change to the way gail fires its events.  Every
focus: event should be accompanied by an object:state-change:focussed event. 
If it is not, then that is indeed a bug (which again, may or may not be in gail
- to diagnose, one needs to identify the widgets/apps which demonstrate the
problem).

So - please do not reassign this bug without a test program which demonstrates
the problem _outside_ of dogtail.  

Does the problem occur with the version of gtk+ used in gnome-2.16, run with a
2.14 desktop?  If so, the problem is likely to be something triggered by
changes in gtk+.

I must say, the trace above doesn't point to gail at all, so I don't understand
how the comments #2 - #4 relate to the initial description.  Other clients such
as orca are certainly seeing "focus:" and "state-changed:focussed" events,
though I cannot confirm that both are always being fired as they should.  I
would suggest running a modified event-listener-test from at-spi (or another
small event-listening client) to obtain an event log to confirm the event
stream.  Your report that "neither event is being fired" suggests some
other/deeper problem which may be specific to your setup (otherwise the orca
team would be seeing it).
