I don't know if this helps, but I monitored the xboard I/O and also
ran gnuchessr. It seems that on Illegal move gnuchessr is not
terminating it's message with a newline: xboard seems to behave right
if the message is terminated with newline.

I'm not sure of all this though and I am still concerned something was
built wrong; so help's appreciated.
