Further Thoughts on Purvis-Peltier

Inspired by Roman's note, Aunt Beast finds a mistake on move 38 of this game of the 2007-2008 WGOSA tournament:

21- (Purvis*-Peltier+SmallBeast) 1(22)2 1(23)1[2,3] 4(24)23 7(25)7[5,6,24] 7(26)25[8-13] 4(27)24 2(28)22 8(29)26 8(30)8[9-13] 9(31)9[10-13] 9(32@30)31 30(33)32 10(34)10[11] 14(35)14[15-17] 14(36)35[15] 16(37)36 12(38)13 16(39)16 II

Apparently 10(38)34[12] would have won, yielding *2 + *2 + 4 + 2L0, which is a misere P-position.

Move 37 was also a mistake.

27(37)4[5] would have won, yielding *3 + 4 + 1P2 + 2L1.
