After looking at it some more, and then starting crafty from the commandline it
gives a different line which also by the way is drawing :-/

So it seems that its just a draw, and I have to look at my crafty/scid setup
becuase it doesnt see it - although crafty sees it when I use the commandline.

thanks Dieter!
