After much thought during the night, I believe the fix I suggested 
previous to this post is not quite correct.  A better fix would be
to go to line 689 (or thereabouts) and replace  

  /* score > 9000 its a draw or mate */
  if (score > 9000 || root->flags & draw)
    {
      bstline[ply] = 0;
      return (score);
    }

with

  /* score > 9000 its a draw or mate */
  if (score > 9000 /*|| root->flags & draw*/)
    {
      bstline[ply] = 0;
      return (score);
    }

I hope this doesn't cause too many confusion.
