Engines are able to ponder, they recive a new game more or less every move.  In
fact, *only* anmon has problems in the engines that DO ponder.  For example,
Gromit 3.0 and of course Crafty work fine.  Phalanx XII, Little Goliath, Ant,
are a bunch that work ok.

Comet on the other hand can't seem to handle this new game every move,
consequently loses on time alot. (The non CB versions).
