Based upon comments on the list and IRC, here's an updated set of patches. I went with "xc_" as the cursor name prefix as opposed to haskell-x11's "xC_"/"xK_" convention so that if haskell-x11 starts exporting the symbols, we won't have any namespace issues.
This ought to be a patch for the X11 library, perhaps a new module under Graphics.X11.ExtraTypes? The maintainers and hackers of X11 all work on xmonad, so we can make sure that a new release of X11 is made in order for us to use the new cursor fonts.
Also, can you send your patches in darcs patch form?
Quick quide:
$ darcs get http://code.haskell.org/XMonadContrib # grab the repo $ vi foo # make your edits $ darcs record # interactively make a patch out of your changes $ darcs send -o mypatch.dpatch # make a file you can email
I'm happy to apply patches to X11 for basic functionality like this.
