Bug#866378: 3dchess: 100 % CPU consumption

[Markus Koschany]

Package: 3dchess
Version: 0.8.1-19
Severity: serious

While I was working on an update for 3dchess, I discovered that the
game is very wasteful with CPU resources and consumes 100 % of a
single CPU core. I haven't noticed this behavior before but it also
appears that it was not caused by the recent hardening change which
added the pie flag by default.

I think this bug makes the game unsuitable for another release.
