New issue 576 by martin.s... at gmail.com: On FreeBSD Xmonad loses first  
hotkey sometimes
http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=576

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Install FreeBSD (amd64).
2. Write a minimal xmonad.hs with xterm binding.
3. Start xmonad in Xorg.
4. Try (multiple times) Mod+Shift+Return.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

It's expected that xterm opens with the first time Mod+Shift+Return is  
pressed. Sometimes Xmonad loses the key-combo and you need to press it  
twice in fast succession. If you wait too long between the first and the  
second time in sequence, the hotkey will be lost again and again.

I repeat once again: it happens SOMETIMES, but on average every 4th time.  
Try to open terminal and exit it again (Mod+Shift+Return -> Ctrl-D ->  
Mod+Shift+Return -> Ctrl-D -> ...).

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

hs-xmonad-0.11_7

FreeBSD 10.0 RELEASE (amd64).

Are you using an xmonad.hs?  Please attach it and the output of "xmonad
--recompile".

You don't need mine. Use a minimal one:

import XMonad

main = xmonad defaultConfig
         { modMask = mod1Mask
         , terminal = "xterm"
         }

Additional info:
Cannot be reproduced on Linux. Everything works as expected there.
