Subject: A not easy endgame for computers

The following position developed in a game newer of date:

[D]7R/8/7k/6p1/r5p1/6B1/5PK1/1r6 b - - 0 0


We are near that 100 moves here already somewhere. The two human players played
here up to the bitter end of the 50 moves rule, because black did not want
simply to see that the position not to be won is. One would play against
programs in such a way became the programs here probably likewise 50 moves to
long only shift. The interested reader can test once like different programs
this position to evaluate. For me would be interesting to know whether a program
before the 50 moves rule would still try a rook against the bishop to sacrifice
there black still a pawn more possesses thereafter?
