Subject: Stalemates and crazy rooks...

     Position is trivial. Easy win. Here's fen:

 8/7k/5p2/4p3/4P3/6qb/1R4B1/6K1 b - - am Bxg2

 Fen after Black plays 54. ... Bxg2:

 8/7k/5p2/4p3/4P3/6q1/1R4b1/6K1 w - - bm Rb7

 Which program gets both tests right?
 Any ideas how to prevent draws like that?

(Black was my program, white was Patzer 3.0... Patzer passed second test :)
 Below full game score.
