Chessbase told me it was a bug. I chose not to replay this game because this would not be fair to the other engines involved. If a program loses on time or because of a bug, it is a loss just as well. In a human/human match it is the same: No game would ever be replayed just because the loser says "Oh, I lost that game because I made this blunder just because I was tired!". A loss is a loss.
