I wonder whether there are also {lupDujmey} that aren't {-Hom}.

Why not?
From my understanding of the language, every X-Hom does have a X, since the suffix is "added" to a word to modify it. (although I am not generally saying that every word with a suffix can be reversed lacking its suffix!)

Do we have any obvious counter-examples?

By the way - without revealing too much - TalkNow uses {lupwI'} in several combinations, but there is no {lupDuj}.

Lieven.
