I have never gotten this to work with any program other than Crafty on the
second machine eg Yace, Arasan, my own!  The error seems to be associated with
permissions on fh, but try as I may I have never solved it.

The first fails after the first move .. Error writing to first chess program:
Broken pipe.. (even if I pretend it is Crafty)

The second works.
