They might have changed some pawn valuation or something, in preparation for
Kasparov and Junior 8 upgrade. I hope that would have been easy enough to do.
Well, atleast he wants to make an upgrade too, but the very fact of having
played Kasparov together with different Pawn evalution is probably more than
enough for this time.
