I see that Schniedewind and Hunt don't talk about a 'subjunctive' but a 'volitive' for the yaqtula form in Ugaritic. That certainly fits better with the Hebrew cohortative (which is found in both the first _and third_ person in the OT, Rolf, as you know). Perhaps then in North-West Semitic the yaqtula form performed a rather different function to the Arabic. That would tie in better with what Rolf reports of Krahmalkov's position (I find his grammar frankly confusing but a copy happens to be at hand).
