[xmonad] Problem with maximize on a 3 display setup

Hello

I have three displays. A center display at 2560x1440 and a portrait display
on each side at 1200x1920

I use xinerama and seperate xorg screen configurations.

Almost everything works great, I can mouse around my displays, move windows
between them, size between them.
My xmobar is correctly on the bottom of each one.

However when I maximize a window, xmonad only correctly maximizes on the
left and center display.
On the far right display it only maximizes to the first 1423 pixels and
leaves the rest below blank.

I can still size a window to the full height, and my xmobar is still on the
very bottom and my wallpaper goes the whole way up.
It's just maximized windows when handled by xmonad it doesn't think the
monitor is taller.

I asked for help on IRC and someone felt that it probably had something to
do with struts not being calculated correctly or something.
That some how maybe my xmonad was using some measurements from the middle
monitor for the right monitor.

I was using some older xmonad and xmobar versions, but as of Dec 3rd I
updated latest xmonad from darcs (http://code.haskell.org/xmonad) and the
latest xmobar from GIT (https://github.com/jaor/xmobar)
Updating to the latest had no effect.

My xmonad.hs file is: http://pastebin.com/JsFY5LXi

.xmobarrc-center: http://pastebin.com/jje5NsiJ
.xmobarrc-right: http://pastebin.com/ay8Ct7AH

My xorg.conf file is: http://pastebin.com/0t7b1JER

Could someone help me out?

I would GREATLY appreciate it :)
