Good catch.  I'm unable to refute 3. ...Kf7, which apparently draws.  Also,
3. Bd5 (instead of Bf5) seems no help.  With Black King at f7, White King
remaining at h7, and White Bishop at f5, White CAN NOT triangulate (force Black
King off of f7) since Black can shuttle Bishop (a5, b6, c7).  As long as Black
Bishop remains off of d8, then White can't successfully sac his Bishop.
