Are you trying to say that this output by Junior 8 is acceptable? It's true that
Junior 8 recognizes the stalemate when it is White's move (I'm not sure whether
it is the GUI or the engine that recognizes the stalemate), but any chess
program that announces a win for Black in the above position ("Mate in 2") is
clearly defective.
