Ah, it's simple. Yinkom has no dot in the kuf.  Yikkom has a 
dot in the kuf.

See:  yissa, yissa' yishak, yitten, yibbol, yippol yitzok, 
yittom yiggof, yiddor, yittosh, etc., etc. The Torah is full 
of them

more to the point, see Yehoshua 10:13. My CD-Keter says 
yinkom and tinkom do not appear in Tanakh.

Actually both are considered correct but yikkom is more 
common and preferred. In Israel. small kids when learning to 
speak will often say hu yinsa' or tinten li. I've even heard 
"tizaher, ata tinpol!"
