Somebody on #xmonad claimed that it might be necessary to use the XInput library to add support for mice with more than 5 buttons in xmonad (or any other haskell program).
That was me; see above for the reason. The XInput extension provides access to unlimited mouse buttons, as opposed to the standard XEvent API which is limited to 5 buttons.
I don't know how this stuff works but my xmonad.hs simply uses 8 and 9 instead of button8 and button9, respectively; it seems to work fine. Lukas
