	I'm running the patched version of gnuchess 4.0,
pl 74 on HP-UX.  Everything works, except for two things:

1.)  To query book moves (from xboard, and also I believe
     straight from gnuchessx), I have to do it twice.
     Nothing happens the first time, but the second time
     the book lines will pop up.

2.)  (Most annoying)  When I select "Move Now" from xboard
     (or, again, straight from gnuchess), the computer
     will make it's move.  Unfortunately, after that it will
     hang indefinitely, neither moving nor responding to any
     commands or moves.  

Any suggestions?  I mailed the gnuchess bug list as per
the FAQ a couple of months ago and received no response.
