test position tablebase bug

[ernest]

Isn't all that due to the fact that Nalimov tablebases don't take into account castling?

Yes. No idea why you felt the need to repeat the point, though.

Edit: actually, you're wrong. It's Fruit's fault for not taking it into account. Tablebases have nothing to do with it if an engine uses them incorrectly. It's the equivalent of taking the kings and 3 random pieces in any position and acting as if the TB probe was of the full position.

Thanks, Vempele.
Actually, I had not read hgm's post, which is very clear (especially, with the addition of your Edit)!
