 Black can try a setup with Ke5 and play the knight to e7. Then white has
 to keep the bishop on b1-h7 to prevent Ng6/Nf5. That might make it
 inpractical for white to keep the king on d3. Black is then also free
 to try different knight manouvers to d4/e5. I can't see a clear cut win
 for black but white must perform a limbo number to protect all the
 weaknesses on the queenside, kingside, c4, d4, e2 and f3. Don't really
 think he can manage that at the same time. Can't prove it though - only
 instincts...;)
