There is no "both depths" in crafty.  It does a full-width search to some
iteration depth, plus extensions, but the extensions are not limited in
depth, and there is no 'selective search'.  most likely chessbase hacked
it to display 8/17 which means 17 moves were searched on the 8th iteration
before making a move...
