[SOLVED] xmonad broken after update

I just ran a system update (not sure how long it had been; possibly a few months), and now xmonad crashes when I run "startx".  (I am still able to start X if I switch to twm.)
I get these errors when I try to run startx with xmonad:

Have you read any of the other Haskell threads?

Re: [SOLVED] xmonad broken after update

Which threads are you talking about, jasonwryan?

Also, did you figure it out, njoliat? I mean, it's quite obviously a problem with some shared libs, but what is the solution?

Re: [SOLVED] xmonad broken after update

For the record, `xmonad --recompile` solved the issue for me

Re: [SOLVED] xmonad broken after update

thanks all.  I was able to get things working by rebuilding xmonad as in this comment.  there's also info in this bug report.
