A careful discussion of deponency in general and specifically the deponency of
EGEIRW can be found in section 5.3ff (p811ff) of the appendix to the
Analytical GNT (1st ed, 1981) by Timothy and Barbara Friberg. Friberg's
treatment of deponency will probably not appeal to everyone but it is worth
reading.
