(S-chessv1.42 on P3-550mHz)

Here's what my program says (and to prove the mate in 4 all the following
moves for both sides according to my program, the mate: (also according to my
program)
Bc8 ..c6  Ba6 ..cxb5  Qxb5 ..Kxf3  Qe2#)

3  1240  0    1149      Bd7-e8 c7-c6 b5xc6
4  1268  1    3349      Bd7-e8 c7-c6 b5xc6 Kg4-h4
5  1351  1    6355      Bd7-e8 c7-c6 Nf3-e5 Kg4xg5 Qe2xh5
6  1143  1    36955     Bd7-e8 c7-c6 Qe2-f1 c6xb5 Be8xb5 Kg4-h4

8  9999  11   1107617   Bd7-c8 Kg4-h4 Bc8-b7

My program finds 99.99 on the 8th ply wich means a mate in 4 (my program always
finds mates in Nx2 ply.. so 8 ply=mate in 4 :)  )

Black then only 1 possible reply :

3  -1204 0    130       c7-c6 Kc5xc6 Kg4-h4

Then a mate in 3 :

3  1351  0    1122      Nf3-e5 Kg4xg5 Qe2xh5
4  1143  0    3400      Bc8-a6 c6xb5 Ba6xb5 Kg4xf3
5  1265  0    5778      Bc8-a6 c6xb5 Nf3-d4 Kg4xg5 Qe2xh5
5  1269  0    9287      Bc8-b7 c6xb5 Nf3-d4 Kg4xg5 Qe2xh5
6  1048  0    39178     Bc8-b7 c6xb5 Nf3-e5 Kg4xg5 Qe2xb5 Kg5-h6
6  9999  0    41348     Bc8-a6 Kg4-h4 Ba6xb5

After black again has only 1 possible move :

3  -1138 0    98        c6xb5 Ba6xb5 Kg4-h4

Mate in 2:

3  1265  0    748       Nf3-e5 Kg4xg5 Qe2xh5
4  9999  0    2159      Qe2xb5 Kg4-h4 Ba6-b7
