[xmonad] mod+q logs me out?

[Alexander Pirdy]

I discovered recently that my mod+q is not working correctly. When I
press it it kicks me out and I have to login again, this crashes all
the programs I'm using etc.

I am using xmonad 0.9.1 on xubuntu 10.4. I installed xmonad with the
package manager, and this happens on a fresh install with the default
xmonad.hs.

I don't think it has anything to do with the xmonad.hs file I use, but
just in case it can be found at http://hpaste.org/74925.

I also did a [2] ptrace on xmonad while I pressed mod+q which makes it
look as though xmonad is sending garbage parameters to itself (thanks
to geekosaurus on irc for this). Here is the portion where I think
stuff starts to go wrong, but the full trace can be found at
http://hpaste.org/74927.

Mod+q is mapped to the default of "spawn "xmonad --recompile; xmonad
--restart"", and a xmonad --restart executed from the terminal leads
me to believe that this is failing somehow, but I have no idea how to
find out more or to fix it.

Thanks for your help.
