This is a little weird. Spencer: was this expected. Does it mean that
the 'grey blobs' window is somehow not visible, and previously was just
left on the screen?

Just tried current xmonad version (Sun Jun 17 07:23:22 CEST 2007) and it
works correctly, ie. it doesn't show any greyish blobs (but has the same
flicker as ion3, wmii, and plain X). The problem appeared in xmonad too,
but is fixed by patch "Hide windows that are not supposed to be visible"
(Mon Jun 11 21:18:09 CEST 2007, patch attached).
I hope that helps identify the problem.
Regards,
Sebastian

This is the patch that apparently fixes the 'grey blobs' window:
