Thank you Lex..  One question, though.  If it were clearly an ICC bug, why can't
I cause the same situation when using a native engine?  Whether the engine is
native or UCI/winboard should have no bearing on how fast the bookmoves get sent
to ICC.  It seems very odd to me that the native engine(s) aren't experiencing
the same issue (however, I've only tested LCHESS.)

For the time being, selecting "None" instead of Timestamp seems to be a quick
fix for the problem.
