Follow-up Comment #3, bug #27751 (project xboard):
This was essentially what WinBoard was doing. Having negative counts can
potentially produce unpredictable effects when converting the position to a
FEN (for saving the position, or sending it to an engine with a setboard
command), so it is better to keep a consistent and valid holdings state at all
times, even i it is not the correct one.
The fixed version will appear in git soon.
