[Bug-XBoard] [bug #27666] "misc shogi" on FICS

[anonymous]

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #27666 (project xboard):

OK, I fixed the Gothic examining case on the ICS. Unfortunately the ICS
handles it (like any variant switch, e.g. normal -> crazyhouse) in such a way
that you get the board first, without knowing what the variant is, and only
sends you the variant name when you request a move list. XBoard could not
handle this without patching up the code to switch variant during an (ICS)
game, to recognize more variants.

Now  patched that as well, examining of all variants should now be possible.
I had never used examine mode on an ICS, so I probably did not fully test it;
If there is still something wrong, let me know.
