My comment about Rebel 12 was a misprint.  Rebel 12 claims a draw after 5...Rh8.

However the question is who is Rebel claiming a draw for?  Seems to me that at
this point only white can claim a draw by "intending" to play 6. Rh2.  This
because the first time that both players have lost castling privledges to the
Kingside is after move 2....Rh7.  So the position after 1.h3 ..h6 is not a part
of the repetition at moves 3.....Rh8 and 5....Rh8.  So white is first with the
claim when intending to play 6.Rh2.
