	I do not know which changes you made, but I was able to build Amy 0.7 wihtout
any trouble. I was simply unable to compile version 0.6.
	When I have time I will make a multiprocessor version, and switch to a better
compiler; and also build an opening book.
	I played two off-hand games, and I have to say that Amy has a very good style!
I usually do not post games I play against the engines, but I enjoyed these two
and I want to share them. Please note that Amy was playing without an opening
book, that it was using only one processor (UltraSparc 200Mhz) and that I did
not use the best compiler I have.
