It looked like there were no singular moves early on, but now at the very
deepest depths something is going on.  The number of root moves that do not get
much lower scores than the best root move seems to be shrinking.  Presumably the
search is refuting various alternatives to Bg5, even while Bg5's score is
steadily (albeit slowly) dropping.  I am going to ask on the crafty-list if I am
interpreting the output correctly.
