The fact that you cannot reproduce the results in your machine is not a proof
that the results are wrong.

It is possible that if you play enough nunn match you can reproduce the result
(I do not know).
I found that crafty is not deterministic in my machine(PIII450)

I stopped the 5 minutes match (17.10-17.07) in the middle after 10 games and
continued it later starting from position 6.

I did not stop on time so after 20 games 17.10 played more than 40 moves in
position 1 again.
I found that 17.10 did not play the same moves and instead of losing the game
like it did in the first case it had a better position.
