Ok, fine, you got me there. In the interest of full disclosure, here's what I
see in the CM GUI:

Time	Depth	Score	Positions	Moves
0:00	1/3	0.08	433		1.Nf3 Nf6 2.d3 d6
0:00	1/4	0.30	1648		1.Nf3 d5 2.d3 Nf6 3.Be3
0:00	1/4	0.39	2079		1.Nc3 Nc6 2.e3 e6 3.Nf3
0:00	1/5	0.08	4106		1.Nc3 Nc6 2.Nf3 Nf6 3.e4 e5

I get no further output, no matter how long I wait.

But, once again, if you have some actual POINT that you are trying to make, I'd
love to know what it is. If all you're doing is simply pointing out that many
engine writers have not bothered to handle every possible illegal position, then
this does not have any useful purpose other than for amusement.
