In trying to track down where I found it, I found http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Xmonad/Config_archive/Template_xmonad.hs .  I'm assuming this is where I got it.  However, replacing my old file with this gives me new errors:

defaultGaps has been removed for a little while now. You should use
ManageDocks instead, see

for more info.

darcs is the version control system used by xmonad, thus xmonad-darcs
represents the most current code. see http://darcs.net for more info
if interested.
