Can you describe a little what you did? I saw that you made a lot of
parameters dependant on the move number - so how do you want influence
results to differ depending on the move number?
Also, can you say what motivated you to drastically reduce the
value of "B" patterns? (I.e. in which situations does this help?)

I've posted your modifications in diff-form on the development home
page. (With two small modifcations to make it compile under gcc 2.95 -
it doesn't accept variable declarations mixed with code.)
