Subject: endgame test position

Author: Jon Dart

from a game Naum-Arasan:

[D] 6q1/7k/3pQp1p/8/p5PP/P7/1P6/3K4 w - -

Naum played Qxg8+, which is winning. Arasan finds this, but different versions
take  quite varying amounts of time. After the exchange, White can get an
outside passer with b3. Black can stop this passer, but if he does so his King
will be out of position and White can attack the remaining pawns. Crafty
(slightly old version) took 18 seconds and ply 12 to play Qxg8+.
