The problem B is with three promoted pieces Rundlaufs (f8-f8) also, but with Queen instead of Knight. There is also 4th solution [with Knight promotion and Rundlauf finished on initial wP square (f7-f7)] which complete AUW. (Author)

Comments
Regarding problem B in Appendix, there is a (capture-free) Rundlauf in the 4th solution with S promotion, too, namely from f7 to f7.
Furthermore, this problem was dedicated to Fadil Abdurahmanovic.
So now I correct my comments and make it more clear. Also include the dedication to Abdurahmanovic. Thank you!
I am wondering is it possible to be created AUW problem with four Promoted Pieces Rundlaufs all finished on the promoted square... It will be fantastic...
In my own classification, I call this "Rundlauf P[S]".
To answer your other question, I do think that it might be possible to create a problem with Rundlaufs of all four promoted pieces. So many "wonders" have already happened on the chess board...:-)
For example, P1240897 shows all the four "Rundlaufs" P[D,T,L,S], and this with 10 pieces, only. Actually, the "Rundlauf" P[T] is more a double switchback, but being a bit more liberal it seems tolerable as a linear Rundlauf...
The term "Pawn Rundlauf" is realy in my memories, but I can not remember from where. But in my opinion the Promoted Pieces Rundlauf (started and finished on the promotion square) is more difficult.
But as you said - everything is possible, so probably some day we will see AUW problem with 4 Promoted Pieces Rundlaufs...
