Hello Leonid, hello Angrim!

Unfortunately, Chest is not much faster: "no mate in 8" after 38.1 minutes
on a K7/600 with 350 MB hash.  The effective branching factor is beetween
8 and 10, so more depth would cost a lot of time.  And depth 12 is not
reachable for Chest, here.  Sorry.

Cheers,
Heiner
