Could someone explain to me how the following stream should be resolved:

    lo-re-spa-ji-pci

This could be either "lo re spajipci" (the two plant-chickens) or
"lo respa jipci" (the reptile chicken).  I know it's not a great example, but
how is a CV cmavo prevent from falling off a gismu that internally has a
permissible initial consonant pair.
