Yeah, I think so.  This is true for the first one, and it's true for the
last one, so it's probably true for the ones in the middle.

The position at issue is #142 by my way of counting, and #1080 according
to the book.  The positions are actually numbered both ways in the file
I use.

b3r3/q2B2k1/3Q2p1/1p5p/3pP3/5P2/1p4PP/5RK1 b - - 0 1

The key here is 1. ... d3.

Someone told me yesterday that this position appears in the BT2450 test
suite, a few plies later (I think that 1. ... d3 2. Kh1 are played), so
you are supposed to find 2. ... Qf2.

If you could post the solution line for this, that would be great.
