This might be a bit too easy, since Crafty finds it quite
easily.  at depth=8, 1 second, it changes to this move
going to about +.5...  The score doesn't go much higher than
that, which means it might not be winning, but it might be
"OK".  Personally, I am not convinced.  Black has a lot of
pieces ready to defend on the kingside.

I think that Bxh6 gxh6 Qxh6 might be asking for trouble.  It might
be easier if black just makes a normal move like a5 and proceeds with
_his_ attack without opening the kingside significantly.
