Sorry for the late reply. I haven't had success with your xmonad.hs
"hack" yet, but my mupdf patches landed upstream, so vanilla
mupdf-gl from master will work correctly if the window manager does as
well.

Also, it sounds like the bug could be fixed in xmonad-contrib. Is that
correct? Or would it make more sense to include the "hack" in
xmonad-testing/example.hs?
