New issue 425 by kevind... at gmail.com: XMonad.Layout.LayoutHints serious bugs
http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=425

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. import XMonad.Layout.LayoutHints
2. layoutHook = avoidStruts $ layoutHintsToCenter(noFrillsDeco shrinkText  
myTheme (Tall 1 0.05 0.5)),
3. <try switching focus several times>

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
It's expected to try to fill gaps without creating overlaps, but instead it  
creates lots of overlaps between each window and decoration of the next  
window, plus after some switching of focus windows get needless resizing,  
then sometimes totally wrong, overlapping layout and finally, disappearance  
of windows with disappearance of their processes.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
xmonad 0.9.1
Linux 2.6.32-27-generic #49-Ubuntu SMP Wed Dec 1 23:52:12 UTC 2010 i686

Are you using an xmonad.hs?  Please attach it and the output of "xmonad
--recompile".
Yes. Afraid to check for output now since browser window could be taken off  
as well. At least there were no error window.

Please provide any additional information below.
I remember that before, when I tried subj with simpler config, there was  
only one problem: it overlapped each window with next window's 2-pixel  
thick border.
