Hi,

Your program is dumping a lot of information to xboard that it does not
understand nor want. Eg:

>727 <first : Cannot Parse Input: accepted name
>727 <first : Cannot Parse Input: accepted done
>1244 <first : Cannot Parse Input: random

>4473 <first : Cannot Parse Input: otim 30000
>4489 <first : playing move
>4489 <first : starting normal search
>4489 <first : e7e5: 295 34%
>4489 <first : c7c5: 365 42%
>4489 <first : c7c6: 92 10%
>4489 <first : e7e6: 82 9%
>4489 <first : g7g6: 4 0%
>4489 <first : d7d5: 2 0%
>4489 <first : g8f6: 5 0%
>4489 <first : d7d6: 5 0%
>4489 <first : a7a5: 1 0%
>4489 <first : move e7e5

When you are interfacing your program to xboard, you should not send any
information to xboard that is not specified by the xboard protcol. It might
confuse xboard. That is one possible cause of 'Program exited unexpectedly'
problems.
