Here's one for your suite:

8/8/4k3/1p4PP/3P1P2/5b2/8/4K3 w - - bm Kd2; id "DarkThought-Rebel, Rd. 7";


This position was posted last week (by Blass Uri, I think) and it is quite
difficult.  Genius 6 solved it after ~37 minutes on K6-3/450, and Fritz still
had no clue after 45 minutes on a P2-300.

I think some other programs had an easier time with it.
