I played LGGold 2.0 (hash=20M, Default settings for everything else) vs. Wcrafty
16_6 (hash=20M) on a o/c 450 Celeron.  Game/60.  Wcrafty won 13+ 5- 2=.
Due to a time bug? in lggold 2.0, I had to use the reuse command option of
Winboard to restart the engine from scratch every every game.  Match games was
20 of course.  I used the OLD book from the first Goliath though...I hear that
the second book is much superior.  Games looked good out of the opening
though...no game started a pawn down.  BTW, pondering was turned off.
