updated xmonad, funky stuff happening

I updated xmonad tonight, and that didn't seem to be such a good idea. I'm using the darcs version. Since the update, things seem to be a little funky

when new windows are created (launching thunar from urxvt, renaming a file inside of thunar, etc) they dont seem to be focused to the front anymore, and appear behind the older window. I'm wondering if there is a way to get an older version back? (pacman cache not available)

Re: updated xmonad, funky stuff happening

In the current repo you can run:

darcs put --tag 0.6 /path/to/the/new/0.6/repo

And then build your happy version from there.

But I think that you'd be better off looking into the issue in the current. It could be that you have accidentally floated a window, or maybe I'm just misunderstanding you.
