Maybe if there is some king side play.. I really am not sure..

I would really like to see if a win can be pulled out the bag.

If anyone has winning chances here, it is White. He can (if he wishes) guarantee a draw with 1 Nh4 followed by Nf3 and if necessary h3 after Black plays ... h5. There would then be no way for Black to get in.

The more interesting question is whether White can figure out some way to win (either after he sets up that blockade, or by doing something else instead). I couldn't find anything...but there may be a way.
