xmonad will behave abnormally if compiled with "ghc -threaded"

The xmonad created using xmonad --recompile works great. However, if we build xmonad using 'ghc -threaded xmonad.hs` and changing its name according to your platform i.e. xmonad-i386-freebsd, then xmonad will behave abnormally.

.some key definitions will not work.

.XMonad.Actions.GridSelect will not spawn applications ...

Any suggestion is appreciated !

Xmonad doesn't support --threaded as the X11 C library is not thread safe.
