Normatively they must, but the concern is that such glottal stops will
be unstable, since they are not (in the absence of "a'ua"-style words)
necessary for word separation.  In any case, I was talking about "a ua"
[a?wa] as hard to distinguish from "a'ua" [ahwa], both tending to become
simple [awa].
