I've spent some considerable time thinking about this, and I can find no reason to keep the threaded alphabeta/negascout functions in the code base. Threading functionality should be handled at a higher level than this engine, and there is nothing in the multithreaded algorithm that requires low-level access to the engine. We should allow the user to define any method of concurrency that they choose whether it be Erlang, the JVM, or iOS's dispatch queue.
