Before the causitives -dhe and -khidhe, it is awa.
Otherwise, the normal form is wa(a), not awa.
Prior to the present discussion, I had assumed it
was wa, just as in P3p.  I think we need to check
with our speakers to find out whether it should be
considered wa or waa.  Perhaps Vida or Ardis could
help us with this.
