This is what my modified Crafty 17.2 plays from ply 4 on.
depth  time  score   PV
16->   8:23   1.94   1. Rxf4 exf4 2. Rh6+ Kg5 3. Rxh7 Re7
                     4. Rh5+ Kf6 5. g5+ Ke5 6. f6 Red7 7.
                     a6 Rb8 8. Kf3 Rc8 9. h4 Re8 <HT>

So it really likes white here, but I suspect it's not finding the strongest
continuation.  I'm not going to let it search all that much deeper, but if it
really changes the PV, I'll post again, and see if it is the strongest. :)
