Yes.

Maybe it's possible to remedy the problem just by including more holding
game positions in the training data.

It could also be interesting to understand why gnubg is bad at
evaluating this class of positions.

I'm also worried by the discontinuity problems which seem to be larger
there are "loops" in the classes of positions.

It would also be great if Joseph could document his training-programs,
so anyone with plenty of wall and cpu time on his hand could do some
experiments :-)
