There is a bug in the C optimizer on OSF/1 versions at least through 3.0 that
affects gnuchess.  Try recompiling with the -migrate flag added to CFLAGS.
This gives you a totally different C compiler (!).  Alternatively, you can use
-O1 instead of -O2 with the default C compiler.

Also, you need to say "make gnuchess.data" to build the book in
gnuchess-4.0.pl73.  It doesn't get built otherwise.
