Comment #3 on issue 390 by jaspervdj: xmobar crashes after some minutes of  
work
http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=390

I think I encountered this issue as well. For me, the concrete problem was  
that the title of the current window
sometimes contained strange characters. I fixed it by using

customPP = defaultPP
     { -- Filter out strange characters that might cause xmobar to crash.
       ppTitle           = shorten 80 . filter (\c -> ord c < 128)
       ...

Hope this helps.
