Hi,

yes, this type of positions is what we had in mind when building Freezer.
Although the position above with 9 men seems just a bit too hard, because we
cannot look up in 8-men tables for captures.

The concept of just generating the positions of interest is exact the key idea
of Freezer.

Automatically generating the needed sub-endgame-tables or including previous
generated Freezer-Databases is what I'll most probably address in the next
release.
