First of all, sorry for the slow response. I don't have a real internet
access in the week end.
Bob is right, I got the wrong position. However, I should mention that
both crafty 's "setboard" and my "fen" commands give White King at a2
when
parsing 8/k/3p/p2P1p/P2P1P/16/K w - - 0 1.
^^
Both commands get the right board after 8/k/3p/p2P1p/P2P1P/8/8/K w - - 0
1.
With the correct board, crafty-11.13 solved it in 19 plies in 9 seconds,
crafty-14.4 in 19 plies in .37 seconds. Both gnuchess-4.75 and my
program
got stuck at ply 19. Gnuchess got there after 1136132 nodes in 62
seconds
and my program got there after 24920 nodes in 2 seconds. Not
surprising,
my program is based on an older version of gnuchess, so both are likely
to
have the same problems.
Since Bruce said it is likely a "horrible bug", I think I will spend
some
time fixing it before playing with other ideas. With this wonderful
Computer-Chess Club, I'll appreciate any help from you gurus.

It rehashes linearly up to the next 6 slots. If there's a conflict, the
entry with deeper search is kept, if the depth is the same, the newer
entry
is kept where the age of an entry is determined by the node count.
