I'm not so sure of this.
To test it I tried it against Chessmaster and now after 32 moves It have still
not made any progress. If we in addition add that Kramnik could adjurn the game
after 56 moves I'm sure he would manage to make a draw here. Time isn't an issue
I think. Here I have used 10 minutes and Chessmaster have used 90 min. on a
PIII/850Mhz.
I'm sure you are a stronger player then me so try it out yourself and play the
queenending that comes if you start with 34...Qe6.
I have to go to sleep now so I adjurn my game just like Kramnik would have done
