I'm curious, how do you do your automated testing?
I tried using gogui-twogtp -auto with jrefbot and drefbot.  When I look
at the resulting .dat files, there's no indication of which side won
each game.  I know final_status_list is implemented.  Is anything else
required to make that work?  Here's a sample summary file:

#GAMES  ERR     DUP     USED    RES_B   ERR_B   WIN_B   ERRW_B  UNKN_B
RES_W   ERR_W   WIN_W   ERRW_W  UNKN_W  RES_R   ERR_R   WIN_R
ERRW_RUNKN_R
200     0       0       200     0       0       0       0       1
0       0       0       0       1       0       0       0       0     1
