Umm, according to jbofi'e:

le ka mi ju'o zei o'o zei cinmo
Warning: Sentence may be missing selbri at line 1 column 1?
(0[{le <ka (1[mi ju'o] CU [{<(2zei o'o)2 zei> cinmo}
VAU])1 KEI> KU} VAU])0

IOW, the ju'o binds to the mi. Apparently zei is happy to bind to only
one argument, unless this is a bug in jbofi'e (which it looks like it
might be).
