You don't generate 5 man tablebases with the code distributed with Hiarcs,
as it only works for 3-4-5 piece files.  Also you need about 1/2 gig of
memory, and a _bunch of disk space to build 5 piece files.  for 6 piece
files (using Eugene's new source) you need a gig of RAM and a bunch more
disk space...

the ones wint pawns are simply too big at present.
