I have not the Dos version and my hiarcs7.32 still say more than +6 in the
following position:

[D]rnbqkbn1/pppppppp/8/8/8/8/PPPPPPPP/RNBQKBNR w KQq - 0 1

I believe that hiarcs7.32's evaluations is bigger than most of the evaluations
of chess programs when there is a won position for one side.

1 pawn of program A is usually different from 1 pawn of program B so comparing
between evaluations to see which evaluation is bigger does not give correct
results if the difference is not big.
