Hiarcs 9 (as well as Fritz 8 and Shredder 8) access the 6-man multi-part
tablebases in their probing, so I assume that my file TBAccess.dll is up to
date, but when a 6-piece position is on the board tablebase.eng isn't activated.
The tablebase access is indirect, ie the engine makes one move then accesses the
tablebase.

My tablebase.eng file is 161,280 bytes.
