Subject: hashing and mate score "depth"

When you store a mate score in the hash table, you can set the depth field to a
very large number so that you get a cutoff whenever you reach the position again
at any depth.  I just noticed to do this in my program today...Do you think most
beginners miss this fact?  All the intermediate/advanced programmers probably
have this.
