That appears to be a Crafty bug.  Also, I can't reproduce it.

When I load the following FEN position file into Xboard and using Crafty, the engine goes crazy:

8/8/4K3/8/8/8/8/kq6 b - - 0 1
8/8/8/8/8/7R/5K2/7k b - - 0 1

On loading the first position, everything is fine. Then I go to the next position via the NextPosition Command in Xboard and then Crafty goes bezerk, stalling the system due to heavy disk access, and its log file goes to 1 GByte containing this (repeatedly):

Black(1): new
White(1): random
White(1): level 40 5 0
40 moves/5 minutes primary time control
40 moves/5 minutes secondary time control
White(1): hard
pondering enabled.
White(1): ping 6
pong 6
White(1): force
White(1): setboard 8/8/8/8/8/7R/5K2/7k b - - 0 1

I have no idea what causes this fatal loop...
