You're not getting my point exactly.

Try some known testset positions at Fritz and mirror them diagonally over a1-h8
, so both color mirroring and left right mirrorring.

Will it still find the solutions?

I bet several positions it won't :)

In all those positions there has already been castled, so no such problems.

I'm talking about king safety patterns which are there for g,h file but not a,b
file.
