This is off the topic, but of what value is the PV in ply 14, since it offers no
enlightenment beyond ply 13?  It seems that the problem is the potential memory
required to store the PV in the hash, hence the <HT>.  Clearly the real PV is
different.  I wonder if there's a better way to show the difference.
