After Kd1 Bc5 the move Nf2+ is a threat. After Kd2 Bc5 Nf2 is not a problem. Kf1 is a possible alternative. I do not know what is the best move. Some analysis of Movei at depth 12(p850,64 Mbytes hash tables): 12 37 98174 145082772 e1f1 f2b6 c3d1 d8d6 b2b4 b6d4 c4c5 d6e7 f3d4 e5d4 c1b2 e7e5 f1g1 12 38 126570 187368872 e1d1 still calculates iteration 12 > and then develop(!) the king to d3? developing the king to d3 helps to free the bishop at c1.
