What you are calling a bug , in reality , may just be a simple trade off.  Many
of the older weaker programs get these postions correctly.    So do you want
your chess program to get these postions correct or do you want it to play
better chess ( as manifested in higher ratings).  They very well may be
conflicting objectives.
