Thanks Howard, I just ran the suit thru. LamChop at 5sec move on P133 and it
only got 2/24 correct!  Guess I'll give it a longer run.

Where are these positions from?  Specifically, which positions (if any) are in
other test suites?  I like to know when a suite contains positions that I
already use for testing.
