I have done some experiments, too, and I copied the functions involved  
doing spawn into a simple program using the IO monad to fork. I could not  
produce a problem with this setup, but maybe the race condition leading to  
this does not appear there at all, because it is a lightweight program that  
executes forks in system a bit faster.

I ask myself if this has something to do with the fact that the spawn runs  
inside an X action. Do I understand it right or am I completely wrong? In  
some parts Xmonad lacks function type descriptions.

Why is SIGALRM handler installed at all there?
