It is the Haskell bindings to the X11 graphics library that you need.
From the xmonad README:
[snip]
* Haskell libraries: mtl, unix, X11
Finally, you need the Haskell libraries xmonad depends on. Since
you've a working GHC installation now, most of these will be
provided. To check whether you've got a package run 'ghc-pkg list
some_package_name'. You will need the following packages:
mtl http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/mtl
unix http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/unix
X11 http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/X11
[snip]
You will have to go to
http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/X11 and
download those bindings. They are compiled and installed the same way as
xmonad.
