I don't know abut the repo; the trouble is wm/xmonad doesn't  even
build - at lowest on -current amd64 and -current pkgsrc. That is, both
'make' and 'make package' succeed, but as the package does not have a
PLIST, they pack whatever goes through the build process. I do not
know anything about Haskell, but as far as I see it from the log file,
only the html documentation is built, anything related to X is not
found by the build process, the resulting package does not contain any
executable. The log file contains:
. . .
 100% ( 57 / 57) in 'XMonad.Operations'
  95% ( 18 / 19) in 'XMonad.ManageHook'
  Missing documentation for:
    getStringProperty (src/XMonad/ManageHook.hs:99)
Warning: 'DynamicLog' is out of scope.
    If you qualify the identifier, haddock can try to link it anyway.
 100% (  3 /  3) in 'XMonad.Config'
 100% (  3 /  3) in 'XMonad.Main'
  23% (281 /1219) in 'XMonad'
  Missing documentation for:
    set_cursor
    set_colormap
    set_override_redirect
    set_do_not_propagate_mask
    set_event_mask
    set_save_under
    set_backing_pixel
    set_backing_planes
    set_backing_store
    set_win_gravity
    set_bit_gravity
    set_border_pixel
. . .

$  pkg_info -L xmonad | grep bin
$

So there is something wrong in the ghc build subsystem; all the
necessary packages required by xmonad were apparently built
(obviously, as the xmonad build proceeds).
