I think Chessbase is sending a command that is being converted to "new" by the
adapter.  I ran inbetween with Deep Sjeng and saw no "new" command.  But when I
run the adpater with Arena there is no command converted to "new" by the
adpater.

In any event, Crafty is not full strnegth using the wb2uci utility under
CHessbase GUI, although for most users, Crafty will be plenty strong enough even
when not full strength.
