Subject: Quad Op 1.8Ghz speedup

Please take into consideration that Bob is *NOT* done with the 64-bit Crafty,
and these numbers aren't 'solid'.

I ran a test a while back, on a dual AMD 1.73Ghz and two specific positions
where speedup is pretty ugly (or at least, odd).  You can read the original
thread here:  http://www.chess-archive.com/ccc.php?art_id=250157.

My original results were:
