I don't think anyone is doing that, unless they have bugs.

Not at all, why would you think that?
It helps to keep the information from the previous moves, more information is
**good** - never bad (unless you have bugs..).

I know some people do backwards analysis exactly to get the hash full of good
stuff. Besides clearing the hash is slow, it could take a second or two if it's
big, the programs would be unable to play bullet for example :(

Maybe you could make this an option though, again it couldn't hurt to have more
options, but as a default thing it sucks.

Aside from that and the fact that it shouldn't be called WB 4.3.0, I think it's
good to see someone finally working on the project, I have some requests for you
:)

If you could make a window showing the PV's, preferrably a resizable window with
a scrollbar it would be really cool.

Also could you make a setting that would enable winboard to always print the
debug file?
I've never been good with those command switches, it's a mess IMO.

I can think of a lot more than that, but I don't want to overburden you :)
