Sorry Paul, I have not answered your email yet. As you guess I am very busy (and
it looks like it is going to get even worse in the near future :( ).

I did not think the TB problem was a serious one. You are the only one to have
reported this so far, so I thought it was simply a setup problem.

I have no idea where the problem is. Are you 100% sure there is a problem? Tiger
does not access tablebases in a very agressive way, so maybe it does access them
but you don't notice as much noise as with other programs?

Just trying to guess what's happening...
