Bug 253167: x11-wm/hs-xmonad: example build script faulty
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=253167



--- Description ---
`/usr/local/share/examples/xmonad/build' does not produce the xmonad-ARCH
(xmonad-x86_64-freebsd) executable.  The default ghc build script _will_
successfully do this.

In other words: If a user copies the example build script (as directed by `make
install') to their ~/.xmonad directory then the executable emitted will be
called `xmonad' and thus `/usr/local/bin/xmonad' will fail upon being called by
`startx' (since it can't find xmonad-ARCH).
