Minor update to chessbox_gnu4j to fix some of the informational output (current line of thinking).

Chessbox created as a place to put my Java port of GNU Chess and any related chess software components that may come along. Eventually, I’d like to see a Java port of a GUI, like WinBoard, with a plug-in engine interface.
Pieces
chessbox_gnu4j
The first piece in the box, chessbox_gnu4j is a straight Java port of GNU Chess 5.0.7. Being a straight port (mostly static methods and members), it serves as a decent Java/C benchmark, and for that reason I’d like to also port it to C#. In the movegen and eval timing tests, it’s coming in at around 60% of the C speeds.
