Well _I_ want to extend in this case :)
Anyway, I don't think "original algorithm" necessarily means "optimal algorithm"
;)

I think it is related to the re-capture and singular extensions, only problem is
how to actually "remember" the only move, on my movelist moves are deleted after
being searched... grrr what a drag.

While on the subject, how does one detect singular moves?
