This seems to be a serious bug in the Fritz GUI. I know of this, but have only
seen it in extreme Blitz games (e.g. 1/game or such) and never at time controls
of 10/game or above.
It is not specifically Hiarcs-related, I've also seen this from Junior and other
engines, but as I said, only in _very_ short games.
