Nevertheless, as Dave Donnelly reported here on 18th July, the form 
Y:HOWFH, or something very similar, does occur in the Aleppo codex, at 
Ezk 3:13 etc. You should check your facsimile at this reference - but 
make sure that the dot is a holam, and not a revia accent. It is 
possible that Mechon Mamre has simply regularised the spelling in their 
edition of the codex.
