Is anyone aware of any research they could point me toward on the 
pronunciation of words like "calm" and "palm" with a /l/? (I assume this 
is spelling pronunciation, but it just might be a parallel preservation of 
an archaic form.) Geographic distribution of the /l/, whether it affects 
all relevant words, anything like that?
