Your assumption is incorrect, Shredder did NOT lose due to having incorporated
FRC-codes or FRC castling capability. Take a look a spike, and Glaurung, they
both play great classical chess and Chess960. As a matter of fact, I believe
that after Spike has FRC support, it is much stronger than any previous
classical version, released before.
