* Pass extensible state via an environment variable when restarting This fixes a crash when an old xmonad binary would receive an additional state argument.
Does anyone have any feedback on this patch? It's been hanging around for months now. -- gwern

Ping.
The problem probably won't happen very often, but it happened to someone in #xmonad at least once and I don't see any downsides to applying the patch.
