Windows don't reshape properly under XMonad

[Ben Lippmeier]

XMonad forces the window to a certain size, and we don't seem to catch the reshape event. This causes bad scaling of static examples like Flake.

This needs to be tested with the new GLFW window manager interface.

Am I the only one who has issues with getting the keyboard back after
terminating a full-screen gloss program?

Steps:

1. Use Xmonad
2. import Graphics.Gloss >>  display (FullScreen (200, 200)) white (Circle
80)
3. [esc]
4. Notice the lack of input from the keyboard - neither the terminal
(xterm) or xmonad (ex: cctrl-shift-c or M-tab) catch keyboard events.
5. Start and stop an X application (via the mouse, if you have a panel
and can do that)
6. Notice you now can use the keyboard.

The behaviors are radically different.

With GLUT it made a box in the upper left that was 200x200 (I assume)
and left the rest of the screen as-is (my terminal + panel).  Upon
termination I get the originally reported issue.  With GLFW-b, the
entire screen is used to display a scaled version of the 200x200
window (so, pixelated) and upon termination everything behaves
properly.
