Appears to be a parser bug. Using -d* option on the parser we see that
when it sees pu ge klama, it *is* inserting the ku.
With a little fiddling with similar sentences however, it appears that
while inserting the ku, it is losing the ge for some reason, and hence has
no idea what to do with the gik portion when it has parsed it.
