I've tried quite a few engines on this position, and so far only one engine
comes close. After 10 minutes of analysis, Shredder Paderborn at least considers
the exchange, evaluating it as second best. Of course, it doesn't see it as
drawn. :)

8/5k1p/1R2Rn2/5q2/1p6/6P1/5P2/6K1 w - - 0 1

Analysis by Shredder Paderborn:

-+ (-3.02): 44.Rec6 Qb1+ 45.Kh2 Nd7 46.Rb7 Ke7 47.Rc4 b3 48.Rc3 Qa2
-+ (-4.04): 44.Rxf6+ Qxf6 45.Rxb4 Qd6 46.Rf4+ Kg6 47.Rg4+ Kf6 48.Rf4+ Kg5
