Good point.  I was so fixated on finding examples with verbs that I completely missed the plural suffixes.

Unfortunately the prefix {bo-} means “you (pl.) [do something to] him/her/it/them” so this is inconclusive.

Even if the prefix indicated a plural object, this wouldn't tell us anything, because both options are themselves plural anyway.
