MacChess is unwavering in its choice of Kf6 through a full 15 plies and equally
unwavering in its calling it a draw. Its 16-ply line is:

 1. ... Kf6
 2. Kg3 Nb4
 3. Rh1 Bc6
 4. Rf1 Nc2
 5. g5+ Kxg5
 6. f6 Nd4
 7. e7 Be8
 8. f7 Bxf7
 9. Rxf7 a1=Q
10. e8=Q Qg1+
11. Kh3 Qg4+
12. Kh2 Nf3+
13. Rxf3 Qxf3
14. Qe5+ Kg6

About 20 hours on a G3/300. A little over 20 billion nodes. Maximum depth
probed: 60-ply.
