By default it does, but Stack can be instructed to use a system-provided
GHC.
It's probably possible to build kmonad without Stack, too: Stack is
mostly a dependency-resolution tool, and the Debian package build
environment would need dependencies satisfies via Debian packages
anyway. In fact, a significant part of the work of packaging any
Haskell program is probably packaging its transitive dependencies,
and ensuring that the versions required match up with what is in
Debian already.
