Is this position "finished"?

If you can work out the answer in less than 15 minutes, you are a better player than I am. If your program can work out the answer at all, I will be impressed. I set Thomas Wolf's GoTools working on it - its estimate of the time it would need rose to over two hours, and then it gave up trying.

Magog solved it in less than 6 seconds.
