MacChess 5.0.1 on a 250MHz PowerBook G3 found a mate in 8 after about 6 mins 30
secs.  The PV is:

1. cxd8=Q+ Qxd8 2. Rxc6+ Qxc6 3. Qe6+ Rd7 4. Qxd7+ Qcxd7 5. Nxe6+ Bxd6
6. Nxd6+ Qxd6 7.Qxa8+ Nb8 8. Bb7#

Apologies if I've made a typo in transcribing this - MacChess doesn't produce
output in a convenient form for copying.
