1. The draw claim is wrong: Mate ends the game. This is a chess rule bug!
2. 93...Ra6??? Crafty didn't see #1 coming??

Looks like a bug in both.

3. Why do you post such a **data monster** with the complete pv for each move?
That's not necessary here. Please turn off "Appearance/PGN, Save mainline."

(It's a pity that this is on by default... should be changed to off IMO.)
