Subject: Hashtable problems

Hello!
I've got some problems with my hashtable...
Here's the output of the starting position:

Something is wrong - I simply don't find the mistake...Have a look at the line
of depth 12 for example - if the search had stopped at this point, my program
would had lost in a won position with a positive score.
Any suggestions - what might be the mistake?

Thanks, Steffen
