When run under xmonad, incanter produces blank windows

[GoogleCodeExporter]

To reproduce the problem:

- Install xmonad on a recent Debian system.

- Create a dummy account.

- Log in to an xmonad or xmonad+gnome session as dummy.

- Download incanter: http://incanter.org/downloads/

- Assuming you downloaded the jar, run "java -jar incanter.jar".

- At the "user=>" prompt enter these two lines (taken from
  https://github.com/liebke/incanter/wiki#getstarted):

    (use '(incanter core stats charts))
    (view (histogram (sample-normal 1000)))

At this point you should see a blank window if you're in an xmonad or 
xmonad+gnome session, and a histogram if you're in a plain gnome session.

I tested using xmonad version 0.10-4+b2 (Debian package), and there was no 
~/xmonad directory.

I've also reported this to the incanter developers:

No -- apologies, I hadn't seen that, and in fact, setting 
_JAVA_AWT_WM_NONREPARENTING=1 does fix the problem.

Thanks for the help; it should be safe to close this now.  I'll also add a link 
from the incanter bug.
