Saying no chess program is wrong because David Omid's second chess program(not
genesis) can see the draw in ply 1 based on his post in the winboard forum.

I can give some other positions and it is interesting to know how many programs
see the draw.

[D]5k2/5Pp1/6Pp/7P/8/1B3K2/8/8 w - - 0 1

[D]k7/1pppp3/pq3p2/7P/6Q1/8/8/K7 w - - 0 1

[D]k7/8/8/b1p1p1p1/PpPpPpPp/1P1P1P1P/8/K5Q1 w - - 0 1
