Are you sure? I've found some debates in the list's archives about this
topic, and they seem to say that {jaH}, {ghoS} and {leng} are the verbs that
work this way. {vIH}, {paw} and {chegh} seem to have not been mentioned to
work this way. And Okrand clearly stated that there is no general rule for
this.
