I compiled it with cygwin32 (without any problems) and played several games with
winboard.
The executable seems to be slow on my k6-3 450 (80knps).
I compiled crafty with cygwin32 (with the mingw32 possibility) and i get
(216knps with the benchmark cmd and gcc2.95).
With the exe provided on hyatt ftp i get (268knps with the benchmark cmd).
I think it is possible to optimize the new gnuchess with the mingw32 part but it
takes some time to do this.
