I believe you mean 11...Qa5.  Move 9...a5 is book.  In which case, the FEN above
would be the correct one.

There are several factors that determine where a program branches, and so forth.
 Deep lines are sometimes impossible to reproduce.

I gave my Chess Tiger 14.0 (under the Rebel interface) 8 minutes to find the
move, and it never did.  I am using a Dual Pentium III 1,000mhz, which of
course, CT is only using 1 of them.  I tried with anti-human on and off.  With
96MB and 192MB hash tables.  I even played the entire game out, moving piece by
piece with the same time.  And I could not get it to reproduce.

If I had more time, I would let it just go until it found it, but it's late.
Perhaps this is another version they are playing with!?

It does seem strange, but I guess not impossible.
