Ikarus needs 3 seconds (K6/2-475MHz, 8MB Hash) to find (and stick to) Kc3, score
goes up to +2.02 after 136 seconds.

However, I do not see the simple draw after g4. In my opinion, it is still won
after that (Kb4 Kc2, and the black king will be driven back again, pawn moves on
the king side are horizon moves, if the black king moves to the king side, the
white pawns on the queen side will create a passer too quickly).
