You are referring to this variation:

Did you intentionally mark this as joseki? The only joseki move I am
aware of is the shoulder hit on the 4th line. (Kombilo did find this move
in one professional game, but under very special circumstances, X threatening
to finish a center moyo.)

It probably doesn't matter much, as gnugo doesn't play the iken tobi
beforehand at the moment, but...
