I don't see any problems to include this in contrib: To compile XMonad
core you need hsc2hs seeing as there is a file  XMonad/Main.hsc.

hsc2hs is included with ghc-6.12 and I'm almost certain that it was
shipped with earlier versions too. XMonad core uses a hsc file too.

Perhaps the XKB binding is somthing that should be part of X11 or a
separate package on hackage.
