l vs. s, sh?

[Mikael Parkvall]

I haven't systematicaly searched for sound changes, but whenever I come 
across a table or the like citing many of them at once, I usually save 
them in a file. Who knows what may come in handy some sunny day? For 
whatever it's worth, here are the cases I have in that note file which 
might fit the bill:

* Proto-Algonquian ? Arapaho: /?/ ? /?/ (Picard 1994:4)

* Proto-Algonquian ? Blackfoot: /l/ ? /?/ (Berman 2006:365)

* Proto-Algonquian ? Woods Cree: /l/ ? /ð/ (Bakker 1996b:5)

* proto-Austronesian ?? Basay: /l/ ? /c/ (Li 2004:367)

* Proto-Min ? some Min dialects: /toneless l/ ? /?/ (Norman 1988:233)

* Proto-Min ? some Western Min dialects: /toneless l/ ? /s/ (Norman 
1988:233)

* Proto-Ongamo-Maa ? Ngasa: /?/ ? /h/ (Vossen & Heine 1989:191-3)

* proto-Quechua ? Argentinian Quechua of Santiago del Estero: /l^(j)/ ? 
/?/ (Adelaar 2004:204) [Citing from memory, doesn't this characterise 
Argentinian Spanish as well?]

* proto-Quechua ? some Quechua varieties of Argentina and Ecuador: 
/l^(j)/ ? /?/ (Adelaar 2004:204)

The IPA is in Unicode. I can provide the refs if anyone needs them.
