Subject: King Night Bishop - 50 Moves

At one time, there was a rule in chess that in the case of a known forced mate a
player was allowed the standard 50 move rule or twice the number of moves with
best play to execute the mate.  The KNB vs K ending is a 34 move ending  with
best play.  Therefore a player was allowed 68 moves to effect the mate.  Does
anyone know if this rule is still in effect?
