Yes. How can a program be strong enough to win 97% and not win 100%.
Over on the fuego list Martin Mueller discovered some interesting test
positions (e.g. only winning move is playing inside your own benson-safe
region, IIRC) by looking at games where fuego lost against weaker opponents.

An addition to CGOS that shows "Biggest Upsets Of The Month", excluding
losses on time, would be an interesting way to build up a test suite. I
don't know if that is a trivial SQL query for Don, or something harder
though.
