Hans,

How does Patzer manage to solve this position?  The solution is an unusual
fortress which involves putting black's king into a cage from which it cannot
escape.  Does patzer have special knowlege for this type of position?  Do any
other programs have this knowlege?  I would think no program would ever see a
near draw score here.
