I can't help, becuase I am having the same problem, but here is as far as
I got. First, I love the documentation... here are some lines from the gnuchess
makefile:

# gnuchessr will be the xchess/chesstool based chess.
#               (/usr/games/chesstool gnuchessr)
#    for use with SUN's chesstool and X-window's xchess.
#    To use with latter, add -DCHESSTOOL to the nondsp.o
#    compilation lines (e.g. cc -O -DCHESSTOOL ...)

In the first line xchess is mentioned before chesstool.
In the third line chesstool is mentioned before xchess.
In the fourth line the latter is mentioned without reference to which latter!
I suspect -DCHESSTOOL would naturally be for chesstool, and not xchess,
though the documentation does seem to indicate otherwise.

So, don't compile with the chesstool option. Then try "xchess -c -p gnuchessr"
and you get xchess, which says gnuchess is playing black. At this point you
can make one move as white and then the computer hangs up.

I have no clue...
