[Bug-gnubg] GnuBG is playing strangely and checkers will not move properly when clicked

[Myshkin LeVine]

Hello Developers,
		 I just built gnubg from CVS as of June 15, 2009 05:07 GMT and the  
program is behaving rather strangely. It is playing poorly, and  
making tutor recommendations which are clearly wrong. I have gnubg  
set to play at World Class for both checker and cube. To illustrate,  
I set the dice generator to manual and opened a new money session. I  
then gave gnubg a 5-3 to play and it did not make its three point but  
rather it made the old-timer play of 13/10, 13/8. 2-ply evaluation  
rated making the three point as a -0.438 blunder.
		 For a second illustration, I also tried opening a new money  
session with manual dice and tutor on. I have the dice set to show  
the higher die on the left. This time I gave myself an opening 5-3 to  
play. If I click normally on the top checker on the eight point it  
will move to my five point, not my three point. I have to drag the  
checker from my eight point to my three point and then clicking a  
checker on my six point will move it to my three point. When  
finishing the move the tutor will not flag the play as incorrect but  
if I step back the analysis panel will show that I played 13/10, 13/8  
and will also rate the 8/3, 6/3 play that I actually made as a -0.438  
blunder! The move I made will be shown correctly in the move list  
however.
		GnuBG was also redoubling in a money session when in a losing  
position and in positions where the larger die could be moved but the  
smaller could not the checker would not move when clicked but those  
are harder to illustrate.
                                Take care,
                                          Myshkin LeVine
