Yes, it's just a warning -- the compilation has completed successfully  
nevertheless.

The darcs version of xmonad has already fixed this (see  
http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=264).  Check to make  
sure that the xmonad in your path is actually the xmonad you built  
from darcs' source.
