This is typically a bug in the xorg video driver; xmonad handles window  
placement policy, this is redraws not happening which is between the X  
server and whatever client is not redrawing (or the server itself if there  
is no backdrop window).

While things like this often happen with NVidia driver regressions and the  
only known workarounds involve running a compositing manager, apparently a  
recent Intel video driver update introduced this in the case where the root  
window is left at the default black; `xsetroot -grey` is a workaround in  
this case.
