Recently I was playing a five minute game against gnuchess 4pl60 with
xboard 2.1pl9 on a Decstation 5000 running Ultrix. After my 11th move,
d1d6, gnuchess spent so much time on it's reply it's flag fell, whereupon
it played f6g4 despite having f6e4 available. I made a few negative time
moves just to see how gnuchess would respond.
The gnuchess printout is included below. Has anyone else seen problems like
this?
