Oh, I did`nt realise that, here is a fast "bugfix" it just makes the
ECO/Move entry require Upper case for piece names:
Change this line in algbr() in the file nondsp.c:
      if ((mvstr[1][0] = qxx[board[f]]) == 'p')
to
      if ((mvstr[1][0] = pxx[board[f]]) == 'P')

Hope this is sufficient till someone fixes this properly, probably by
making algebraic or ECO notation different modes.
