In case you're curious, here's what the patch fixes:

1. Fixed a bug created by v1.0.2 which prevented new moves from being added to
opening books with the Opening Book Editor.

2. Chessmaster's blitz play is now improved under certain circumstances.

3. Fixed a bug in which the OPS of a player in a Swiss tournament was not
calculated properly if one or more of that player's opponents was a human.

4. Fixed a problem with multiple sets of controls that allowed users to select
which opening book an imported XBoard personality should use.
