Subject: Endgame test position

[D]8/8/2b5/8/1k2p3/1p2K3/1B6/8 w - -

I believe this position is a draw (although I can't be sure, because I don't
have 5-man tablebases).  Hiarcs 7.32 evaluates this as a 1.46 pawn advantage for
Black at depth 13/23.  Rebel Century 3 evaluates it as a 1.44 pawn advantage for
Black at depth 15.00.  If I am correct that this is a draw, are other programs
(without 5-man tablebases) able to see it?  Does additional ply depth on faster
computers enable Hiarcs and Rebel Century to see it?

Any feedback appreciated.

                                            Thanks,
                                            Steve
