Is this an arena problem, or a gnuchess problem?? Since when is d2-d4 an illegal move?

This is a 100% Arena problem,it happens quite a lot with some engines,I guess a GUI-chess engine communication problem....

Before that move there is a weird thing that I dont understand...

Code: Select all

619313<1:White (1) : Root = 0, Phase = 1 

What does it mean??

This I guess only a programmer can answer....

The problem is this: an old engine may send "White" to say "1-0 {White mates}"
Arena sees this as white resigning for black in this situation.
Arena is wrong because there is more than "White" on the line from engine, so the "White" is not a game result.
