GNU has read out that it cannot live on the board.
I'm not sure if this is correct or not but it seems
plausible that it is true on a board this small.

You might be able to prevent this passing by adding a
pattern or two to one of the pattern databases
e.g. fuseki.db to prevent this. Make GNU play at
an open 3-3 point. But it will pass pretty soon
if it sees no hope to live.
