So why was there never a problem with -COMPACT_ATTACKS from Crafty9.31 to
Crafty18.15 on the same compiler under same conditions? Very strange. But we had
this discussion already. I just like to prod the programmers sometimes to double
check their sources. :-)
By the way, what does COMPACT_ATTACKS do anyway? Maybe the problem is not
directly related to COMPACT_ATTACKS, but somehow indirectly?
