The main new feature in this version is full support for Fischer Random Chess, aka Chess 960. In addition, a few strength-eating search bugs have been fixed.
I am confused, should I use this for TCEC instead?
That's not necessary. There are no functional differences between the version you have and r5178. The changes between are merely to make it easier to build the Kindle version of Octochess.
Martin..maybe you can use better a dated dev version..because you never
have the latest dev version!..i also test with later dated versions from some engine in your list!
And i'am sure there are again newer dev versions!

Not much I can do when programmers release new public versions before the tournament starts.
If Amazon wouldn't sneak updates onto my Kindle and thus breaking the jailbreak without my consent, I could have had the public release out a few days earlier

No worries Tim. You are of course free to do what you want.

int get_system_memory()
{
uint64_t v;size_t l=8;sysctlbyname("hw.memsize",&v,&l,0,0);return v / 1024 / 1024;
}
For the second error, replace MAP_ANONYMOUS with MAP_ANON.
I don't have access to a decent compiler on OS X, so haven't tested it myself.
After finishing compiling Octochess, make sure to run octochess test to run the selftest routines. It has to pass, otherwise the build is bad. If you then execute octochess --threads 1 --depth 18 --memory 1 --moves 1 auto, 51954300 needs to be the total number of nodes printed at the very end.
