I got similar results like those already posted with Hiarcs 9 and Shredder 9,
both preferring 65.Reb1 etc. Both engines agree on 67.Ke3 being better, keeping
white's clear advantage as it seems, than 67.Rxc5 capturing a poisonous pawn,
whereafter the evaluations drop, and on 69.Ra5 as a considerable alternative to
69.Ke3 (for instance 69...Qxa5 70.Qxf2), although the position remains being a
minefield.

Here is the "fresh" engine output after deleting learnfiles and hash:

P4/3.0 GHz, 128 MB hash each.

The FEN show move no. 1 each, but actually the analysis was always started from
within the complete notation. Might matter for being reproduceable on other
computers.
