Well this only works for non-capturing/non-checking moves-- otherwise, it would
just capture all of the opponents pieces and mate him :-) (that's what the
search is for!!)  I imagine you could use it to test any position-- I mainly use
it to make sure my development isn't wacky as I don't have a book impemented
yet.
