Later I'll put it on my blog,
Popcnt Intel version, and version easily.
Microsoft XP version with OLD_LOCKS.

Marek, maybe you should make an effort and move the code to the new Stockfish,
Not only for performance, even modernize .
Users can compile their machines with system BYO, example.

My modified Stockfish gives Ng4.
Wiki says:
White would lose after 1. Nd1 Kc4 or 1. Nh1 Be5 or 1. Ng4 Bg7.
I cannot see the white win after Ng4
Kind regards

I think your question is "Does Black win?"

Sorry.
You are obviously right.
My question is: How can black win after Ng4

Kind regards

Many thanks Jose for your compilations.

I am afreaid to use any version of Stockfish and to find a horse tail in my bed. Seriously, it is rather your last help. :D
Maybe, I can't be friendly, but let me be useful.

Not there is a downside, it's entertaining. :)

But I see Sting almost 50 percent slower than the latest Stockfish.
And it's not your goal Marek, but fans always compare brute force. :?

I compare Sting only to Stockfish 211 and I am happy.
Muchas gracias amigo! :D

I know that I will do it. All is in my head. The problem is that my dual core machine is too sloow. I need to find a sponsor (i7).

Maybe someone knows a rich men who doesn't like (afraid) an artifical intelligenc and is able help me. Such an engine can be welcome in discusions about the inteligence. 8-)
