A lot more work went into ataxx than iagno, so in principle merging the
two would improve iagno. However, I have my doubts about many of the
improvements that got made to ataxx - e.g. the code for storing the game
board and the code for drawing the board should have been separated in a
different way - so the merge probably isn't worthwhile.
