I don't want to overstate the last one. It may be perfectly good. It 
doesn't FEEL particularly bad to me. But when you think carefully about 
what it means, it doesn't seem to add up.

I would be much more inclined to accept *juHvo' vIghoS* as correct but 
redundant, because *ghoS* encompasses both /locative/ and /away/ 
meanings in its object.
