The 4PL66 archive and the 4PL65 archive were identical, (all .c and
.h files in src that is).
Only the Makefile changed.

There is a bug in thinkahead, the computer sometimes cannot
VerifyMove to do the thinkahead when flag.easy is false.
It seems to think the next move will be the same as the
last move that the opponent made, sometimes, resulting
in the thinkahead aborting out in the VerifyMove call,
with an illegal move, no matching move found error
