Yes, in Welsh. Cornish is not Welsh. Especially in the light of our agreeing
that the unstressed vowel in gaver is schwa.

"Eddie's just been telling me that when he was learning Welsh he was told
that the epenthetic vowel takes on the colouring of the vowel in the
stressed syllable.

 

So gafr would be gaf(a)r, ofn would be of(o)n, sicr would be sic(i)r, llyfr
would be llyf(y)r."
