Does 9969 translate as a 'mate' in 16 [as (10000 - 9969 + 1) / 2 == 16]?  Hmmm..
May still have a bug in my thing, as it thinks d4 (and therefore also e4) is
mate in 15 from this position.

And here is the PV... :)

                               15. e8

Anyone else got a mate length or PV?

Cheers, Tim.
