This causes Xmonad FTBFS.
*Workaround:*
<pre>
Prelude Text.Regex.Posix> line =~ "xK_([[:alnum:]]+)" :: (String, String, String, [String])
("[ ((modMask .|. shiftMask, ","xK_Return","), spawn $ XMonad.terminal conf)",["Return"])

It does not depend on whether libc regex or bundled regex is used. Maybe because these sources have common ancestor :-)
