*sre-u- is impossible (PIE had no bases like *sre-). If you can keep a
secret (it's part of something I've just prepared for publication), I
believe that *sreu- was once segmented *s(e)r-éu-. This *-éu- extension
is also visible in some other verbs of movement like *pl-éu- 'swim,
float', *dr-éu- 'run, flow (of a river)' and... -- OK, I've said enough ;-).
