In SGF, you should start the game with setup properties (AE[], AW[], AB[]
are the important ones, to set up the board -- you might also want to
set the cube and dice).  Then finish the game as normal.  Here is an
example of an endgame which gnubg loads correctly:

(;FF[4]GM[6]PW[gnubg]PB[gary]RE[B+1]
;AE[a:y]AW[a][a][b][b][c][c]AB[x][x][x][x]
;B[21xzxz]
;W[11baazazaz]
;B[33xzxz])

I don't know what equivalent there is in .mat format (which has never
been precisely documented, so far as I know).

Cheers,
Gary.
