Very good!

don't watch search times btw, my pentiumpro 200 internet computer
was swapping quite a bit. diep needs 620k nodes to show a mate score.
fail high of course less nodes, but that's not interesting here.

That's about 8 seconds on a dual.
Amazing PN beats it in this position. Must figure out why DIEP needs
so many plies to find this mate looks pretty easy to me to see in qsearch.

Perhaps a bug in qsearch code somewhere :)
