Thanks for the suggestion, but it still doesn't seem to be working. The log
shows that the tables were found in the beginning but when the board is cleared
down to five and under pieces, it still indicates it is searching. The stats say
this: "endgame tablebase-> probes=0  hits=0". Also moves are taking at least a
second.
