On anu as a relative clause marker, thanks to those who responded.
My question was badly worded.  It should be:

Older speakers of Brunei Malay appear to use /anu/ as a relative clause
marker.  Blust 1974 reports a form /anuq/ 'which' in the related language
Murik.
Is a cognate form with the same function, i.e. marking relative clauses,
found elsewhere?

Thanks for any pointers.
