Additionally, there is almost no difference in playing strength between 3.12 and
3.12d. The only change that was not related to GUI issues involved speeding up
the clearing of hash tables. This, of course, would only affect games that used
faster time controls and larger hash tables (16MB or more).

So, for T2002, there is really no difference between using 3.12 and 3.12d.
