More info.  I ran this suite thru crafty on a quad 550 machine at 20 minutes
per position (it is supposed to be run for 15 minutes, I used 20 to compensate
for not using my normal 700mhz quad).  Crafty got 6 of 14 right...

It got #1 correct after 2:47,  #3 correct after 14 seconds, #5 correct
after 1:42, #7 correct after 7:14, #9 correct after 7:37, #14 correct after
7:45.

So yes, 11/14 correct sounds pretty good to me.  :)
