Lance,

> I agree. A reading of punabbhavaabhinibbattiya.m would be much more
normal.

I did some more searching and found two interpretations at Sn-a II
517:

bhavaabhavesuuti kaamabhavaadisu. atha vaa bhavaabhavesuuti
bhava-bhavesu, punappunabhavesuuti vutta.m hoti.

A fairly elaborate explanation is given at Sadd I 248-9 which includes
the following lines:

bhavo ca abhavo caa ti samaasattha.m vade budho;
bhavato bhavam icc attha.m asamaasassa bhaasaye, --p.249,9-10

Best wishes,

Jim
