I am not aware of any outstanding bugs, or it must be that 
disambiguation of Pawn non-captures in Xiangqi is a bit illogical on 
writing. (When two Pawns can move to c5, e.g. by c4-c5 and d5-c5, in 
would write the latter (correctly) as dc5, but the former as plain c5 
rather than cc5.) I solved that now by adding the disambiguation rule on 
reading that forward push takes priotity. It is not completely clear 
that this is a bug, and in any case a fixwould be rather bug-prone, soI 
wanted toleave it at that for now.

I still have a patch in the parser that would allow pasting of 'UBB 
format' Xiangqi games (as exported by standard JavaScript Xiangqi 
viewers) directly into XBoard. This isn't really a bug fix, so I did not 
commit it to the v4.9.x branch.
