The following thread includes a game in PGN tags but the pawn promotion on Black's 29th move doesn't go through: Black ends up with a pawn on the eighth rank.

Yep. There is a bug.

On the other hand, the correct PGN notation for promotion doesn't have the equals sign. Also, beco's 6... b1=N is a really awful move.

Oops -- my mistake. PGN does have the equals sign; it's FIDE's specification of algebraic notation that omits it. So, in PGN, it's ``6... b1=N'' but in FIDE short algebraic, it's ``6... b1N''. Apologies for the confusion.
