Yes, it is. I get a +0.80 score for white almost immediately, then it just keeps
adding one more aimless king move to the PV for each iteration. I never get to
ply 37, but after 24 hours on my slow CPU (450 MHz PII) Gandalf reaches
iteration 32, with no clue.....

I do not have the complete solution, only the first move :-(
