 *   19.16   fix to "Trojan code" to eliminate the time limit exclusion since  *
 *           many users still have old and slow hardware, and the time limit   *
 *           was not set correctly when PreEvaluate() was called anyway.  the  *
 *           code to display fail-high/fail-low information was cleaned up so  *
 *           that the +1 or +3 now makes sense from the black side where the   *
 *           score is really going down (good for black) rather than showing   *
 *           a +3 fail high (when Crafty is black) and the score is really     *
 *           going to drop (get better for black).  Now the fail-high-fail-low *
 *           +/- sign is also relative to +=good for white like the scores     *
 *           have been for years.  adjustments to pawn evaluation terms to     *
 *           improve the scoring balance.  "new" now terminates parallel       *
 *           threads (they will be re-started when needed) so that we don't    *
 *           burn CPU time when not actually playing a game.                   *
