Maybe I'm missing something, but I don't think this makes DD. Club to the ace and a heart down on which East rises up with the Ace. ♠K overtaken and ♦J fired through. Now EW get 3 diamonds, a spade and a heart before East gets stepping stoned.
Switch the ♠K and A and it makes easily.

You're right about what happens to club to the ace and heart back, but the actual declarer (a frequent forum poster) took a better line.

Club to the ace and a spade although hackenbush spelled it out pretty clearly. Pretty, but shouldn't be too hard to find at the table.
edit: The really pretty part of this hand is that east beats it by winning the HA at trick 1, a very counterintuitive play.
