Dear Paul,
sure!
> If one traced the various histories of PIE /r/ in, say, French, Danish, and Czech, one would find what at first sight look like quite exotic correspondences.
But what I have in mind are cases of replacement within loans - that is, 
Language A has a <sh> in a term that is borrowed into Language B with a 
voiced pharyngeal (I write <%>) instead, say /asha/ in Language A (donor 
language) > /a%a/ in Language B (recipient language). [Unfortunately, 
I'm not allowed to give concrete examples from Caucasian Albanian, as 
long as the corresponding text (the so-called Caucasian Albanian 
Palimpsest) has not been edited. Sorry for this! But I have to respect 
the copyright of others....]
Best wishes,
Wolfgang
