Subject: Crafty "EGTB failed"

I downloaded one of the big tablebases with Crafty (krnkr.tbw) and noticed in
the log file numerous messages: "f***ed up, EGTB failed."  I looked at the code
in root.c but didn't really understand what was going on. What exactly does this
message mean? It only seems to do it with the 5-man tablebase, and I do have all
of the sub-tablebases that go with it.  At first I thought I had a corrupt file.

btw, that tablebase expands from 12MB to approx 167MB! The krpkr (109MB
compressed) must be well over a GB expanded!

Thanks,

Mark
