I think there is no mate there. I ran my matefinder on that position
for over 500M nodes and it showned no sign of converging yet.

Of course the position eventually leads to a mate, but it may be
over 40 ply away, or something, at least nearly inpossible to
pin down to a variant.

(I hope the position is indeed the one I tested, I can't
verify since the data is currently on a computer 15Km away
without an internet connection)
