Gnuchess 3.0 and chesstool

I've compiled GNUchess 3.0 for SunOS as per the instructions (I.E. -DCHESSTOOL)
however I'm unable to get it to interact properly with chesstool. The basic
problem is that it allows me to make my first move and it then locks up.
Without the time to pursue the cause of this I've left it on the back burner.
Can someone perhaps tell me if they've got it working on their machine and
if so did you have to perform any special steps to get it working? My system
is a Sparcstation 1 with SunOS 4.03.  Oh, one other thing. I notice that
when it does lock up that when I kill the chesstool window and return to
the parent window from where I invoked it that I see "My move...." etc. So,
it would seem to me to be some sort of I/O mismatch or something. Anyone?
