Subject: an evaluation problem of chess programs

8/1r5p/6p1/8/P2k4/K6P/1R4P1/8 black to move

Many programs are playing Rxb2 because they computes that white is losing its
pawn in the pawn endgame and do not understand that after Rxb2 Kxb2 Kc4 Kc2 Kb4
Kd3 Kxa4 white is winning.

Rxb2 is not the first move they want to play because they need time to see that
black wins a pawn by this stupid mistake after Rxb2 Kxb2 Kc4 Ka3

Is there a program that understand by static evaluation that white is winning
with the king at d3?(static evaluation at least 1.5 pawn advantage for white)
