I haven't seen this problem - yes, there is overshift, but I've never seen it this bad. I really don't think the dropout inner face is part of a chain-jam prevention system.

I'd start with the NR. If it won't adjust right on the stand or a gentle test ride, there may be a problem, but you can reduce overshift by moving the wheel forward or backward in the chainstay. You want to shorten the free length of chain between the cog and the jockey wheel.
