There is an apparent error in the patch for search.c posted here.
on lines 153-161 it states we should put in something like:

if (ptbl->depth = 0 ) break;
else if (ptbl->hashbd == hashbd) && ......) return false;
else break;

The last else should probably be..
else if (ptbl->hashbd == hashbd) break;

The unconditional else results in all calls going through the
loop without doing anything, or returning false.
