I forgot to add that Rybka 2.2n2 also misses the bishop underpromotion. Like Komodo, it wants to promote the pawn to a queen.

What I want to see is an engine that promotes to a queen/rook in its PV, but gives this a mate score (rather than a stalemate score). :)

Gaviota gave no output because there is only one move. Miguel made a change to force it to give the PV, and it also finds the bishop underpromotion.

All versions of Rybka are going to miss Bishop under-promotions in the PV as it's a feature that Vas never implemented.

Yeah. It occurred to me afterwards that this was well-known behavior for Rybka.

Yes. Vas always rejected the idea of including this feature, because it had a small impact on Elo gain due to rare occurence, and was costing too much in terms of speed.
Can't find the specific links, but it was a long discussion on Rybka forum...
Maybe Uly can be more precise.
