What is the status of this patch? Can I improve something to get it accepted?

One consideration is that a missing XKBlib.h can stop you from building contrib, but I'm not sure that using the C preprocessor to remove those imports when the header is missing is much better. See the X11 library: Graphics/X11/ExtraTypes/XF86.hsc On the other hand, XKBlib.h is supposedly in the libx11-dev package (for debian/ubuntu), so users who can build the X11 binding, will be able to build contrib. That leaves only users who use their distro backage for haskell-X11, but want to build contrib themselves (ex. from darcs) with issues. I'd like to have a second opinion on these possible issues (perhaps I'm making an issue where there is none) before pushing to contrib. So if you want your PerWindowKbdLayout.hsc somewhere accessible in the meantime, perhaps it could go into http://code.haskell.org/xmonad-extras/ -- Adam
