Haskell doesn't use `glibc` (or any other libc) `malloc`,it uses its own
heap which is managed separately. Even Haskell's `malloc` (used with FFI)
uses Haskell's heap; it allocates a "pinned" block that can't be moved but
can still be garbage collected. Any fragmentation issues would need to be
fixed in the garbage collector.

Hi Thank you for developing xmonad , it's my daily wm and I just love it
I just wanna ask, before posting an incorrect new issue, if xmonad ever had , or have already parched, an old glibc bug I learned about:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fjUvETEAnSI
https://github.com/KDE/kwin/commit/561199762f2440a2e00d7aec0aecf64dce5e729a
https://blog.cloudflare.com/the-effect-of-switching-to-tcmalloc-on-rocksdb-m...
It seems a very common bug among graphical environments
Also, I'd like to donate something to the project, how can I do?
Thank you
Cheers
