Maybe it should then read

?2 not in progress

It also makes sense to forbid an async_genmove (or simple genmove for
that matter) until the previous genmove/async_genmove has finished.
The engine should just fail with a predefined error string; I think
it is really cumbersome for the engine to try synchronization here and
serves little purpose.
