[bpfk] camxes and syllabification in zi'evla

I've been looking at the syllabification done by the camxes parser when it parses cmevla and zi'evla, and one detail surprised me.

camxes doesn't compute syllables for lujvo (it computes the component rafsi instead). I was considering how to compute the syllables for a lujvo, either by turning it into a zi'evla (by prepending valsr-) or into a cmevla (by appending -s). zo {mu'erskepre} ("physicist") is my subject. I changed the output in the PEG (but not the actual rules) a little to show me the syllables[1].

valsrmu'erskepre: val-sr-mu-'er-SKE-pr-e

mu'erskepres: mu-'er-ske-pres

The advantage of lujvo=>zi'evla is that you see where camxes thinks the stress is -- but I didn't expect that consonantal_syllable "pr". Is that really how you would pronounce that zi'evla? How many syllables does it have?
