had an interesting position:
[D]8/3b4/6k1/2R5/6p1/4KpPP/8/8 w - -
for which Deep Blue analysis suggested hxg4 and the programs liked Rd5.
I thought I would play h4 instead. So here is what might happen:
[Event "?"]
[Site "?"]
[Date "?"]
[Round "-"]
[White "?"]
[Black "?"]
[Result "*"]
[FEN "8/3b4/6k1/2R5/6pP/4KpP1/8/8 b - - 0 1"]
[SetUp "1"]

Is there a way for black to weasel out of it that I have overlooked?
