yes please make gcc-exe, you never know till you try :)

Is the latest version much stronger ??

ok, mr.Dieter I will see into this more now. I am not at my desk, but will work
on getting you the info you need. freebsd has good way of emulating linux, but
can't always work perfect maybe 95% seccess rate. It would be better to make
crosscompile w/ target freebsd I think.

also I ran simular tests in windows 2000pro using yace pb and it didn't do as
well against crafty as 0.99.50 did in freebsd. but I only ran about 10 games or
so.
Now I think I will run a lot more (in freebsd)and check logs I'll send you
everything as well
