Windows x64/win32 Intel 11/10 pgo (non-smp) builds
Wael Deeb's official opening book will need to be updated to work with the new version.
I have included an opening book file created from Olivier Deville's 'Gm2001.pgn in the meantime.
Why no SMP though? I think SMP functionality is probably one of the most important features of this release, if not the most.
I also changed the split point selection code to another version I had lying around. It should be a bit better scaling-wise now.

So there is no MP enabled in this compiled version

I've compiled a Windows 32-bit SMP version of ZCT using GCC/Cygwin.
Not possible to build an x64 version unfortunately because no 64-bit Cygwin exists.

Thanks Jim. Works fine here, but it's a shame that no PGO'd 64 bit ICC binaries can be made. Just curious, were you running into the same issue Fonzy was if it was compiled natively? I'm hitting it as well, but I can't seem to figure out why. Works perfectly fine under Unix.
I might be able to make some 64-bit MP builds later, but they'd just be with MSVC EE 2008. I have the full version (with PGO) at work, but it's on 32-bit vista...
