Maybe this should make a little stronger, in tournements. But the time handling
has ever been problematic, in Raffaela. If i have some time, i'll correct. I've
even tryed something in check test, that seems to give about 20% more
moves/second... but no more nodes/second. Maybe i take away this optimization,
because it could be the reason of this bug: Raffaela do check by moving a pawn
by 2 and claim for mate... but the mate is some move after, because of the
en-passant!

Thank to Ciro, for this test game:
