Thanx all.

After reading Kurts post I thought, hey, I also have Prodeo on my computer, now
lets see. Indeed ProDeo gives the correct solution, with imho the correct line,
after just _12.5_ minutes on my slow computer.

But now I wonder of course if there is something wrong with my version of
crafty, because it took that much longer;-) Maybe it's just time for a new
computer... how much does a quad opteron cost again?-)

Bye, Laurens.
