I noted how "vayishava [lo]" is treated differently in Seifer B'reishis as evidence for the answer I gave.  "Hishav'a [li]" is likewise treated differently in Seifer B'reishis depending on whether it's graced with a m'shareis (your example) or a mafsiq (beg. of P' Vaychi), but the qamatz is gadol (and the sh'va therefore na') in both cases.  Hope that helps. 

All the best from

Yes, but that doesn't wasn't brought as evidence toward answering my
question, was it?
