Is there an engine that plays 18..bxc3 here?

Hmmmmmmmmmm........ I am really anxious for the verdict on R4 in terms of strength and style........ It appears (as usual) that there may be a trade off in terms of search, knowledge, etc. etc. BTW Good Job Pablo. You are a thorn in the side of the machines.

Sometimes I wonder if existing engines could be tuned (some of them have a bunch of parameters...) to play Pablo style chess?
Could a "Pablo personality" be created for Prodeo, Crafty 2004 or other engines?
Imagine an engine which builds stonewall against Rybka 4
How much ELO could such an engine gain? Of course, the games they play would not be the most exciting ones...
