Fine!  I'll merge in the results of Chest for depth=7:

Chest agrees completely:
3r3k/p1Q3bp/2p3p1/8/2P1BRn1/1P4Pb/P1N1q2P/6BK b - - acn 2934937; acs 28; bm

Chest says:
6k1/1pp2p2/p2p2q1/2PPb3/4r3/Pr4PK/2R5/2Q2NR1 b - - acn 46263143; acs 558; bm

I have not yet looked closer at this one, but it appears that one of us has
got a bug: if your mate in 6 is correct, Chest should have found it.
Otherwise the mate in 6 just is not correct, and you have the bug.  :-(

I would need to do this one extra with depth=11.  Haven't done that (yet).

>Cheers, Tim.

Summarizing: we have one disagreement, which implies a bug.
I will inspect that later, and tell you, why Chest thinks that your
mate-in-6-PV is not correct.

BTW, on my K7/600 with 350 MB hash Chest needed for depth=7 nearly 8 hours.
That is an average of 141 seconds.

Cheers,
Heiner
