I've pushed the changes, please let me know if they're correct or need
revision.

Yes, I tried building it in a clean experimental chroot and it FTBFS.
However, I managed to properly generate the manpage with
`dpkg-buildpackage -b' and the clean target successfully cleans up the
temporarily generated binary.
Did something that once depended on libghc-extensible-exceptions-* loose that
dependency? I also get the following FTBFS when trying to build xmonad proper:
XMonad/Core.hs:36:8:
Could not find module `Control.Exception.Extensible'
Perhaps you haven't installed the profiling libraries for package `extensible-exceptions-0.1.1.4'?
Use -v to see a list of the files searched for.
If this is intended / not a temporary issue, let me know and I'll add it
to the B-D.
Best wishes,
Ryan
