When I have tried this, I can see in the output-Window that for example at the first 8 plies crafty only shows a evaluation and the first ply of the pv. So crafty must get the evaluation from the hashtables. But another problem is that the fritz-engine of crafty didn´t use his own openingbook and the tablebases. The winboard-engine of crafty could be configured to use his own openeingbook and the tablebases, but then you have the problem with clearing the hashtables after each move. So both variants are still have their disadvantages.
