That is inevitable with C.  With C++ we could do it more smoothly,
but even then it would not be logical to put all the engine into goban
object (at least I think so.)  However, I hope to make this all into a
working state in a week.  I have at most 10 non-converted files locally
and that is no more than some 25% of them.
