gnuchess log

game crashes.

in the log file, says there was an illegal move, and the AI will not move
anymore.

The move documented as illegal is NOT illegal!

This actually happened to me twice.

I guess it might have to do with the undo feature which I used some times ...

Hope this helps, checking moves for legality should definitely work I think,
else a chess program is kind of useless.

I attached the contents of the log.

Is this bug still present? I wasn't able to duplicate it when I tried undoing today with glchess 3.3.3.

This application has been unmaintained for a while and its maintainer (Robert Wilhelm) will not work on it soon. Please feel free to reopen this bug report in the future if anyone takes the responsibility for active development.
