Hello François,

As I understand, the commentary is trying to account for the expression "miśrau glau".  If we understand the expression "g-l" as a dvandva compound, then the dual affix "au" could be interpreted as relating to each member of the dvandva compound, and this can allow the compound to refer to groups like "g-g" and "l-l" as well.  These units are referred to by the commentary with the word miśra.
There is a commonly repeated convention (nyāya): dvandvāt paraḥ śrūyamāṇaḥ śabdaḥ pratyekamabhisambadhyate.  Another wording found elsewhere is: dvandvānte śrūyamāṇaṃ padaṃ pratyekam abhisambadhyate.

In chapter 8 the commentary of *miśrau ca* says:

 anena dvitīyākṣaraprastāraṃ darśayati| cakāraḥ
  pūrvaprastārasamuccayārthaḥ| dvikau glau sthāpayitvā
  anantaraṃ dvitīyasthāneṣu miśrau glau vinyaset| gakāro
  gakāreṇa saṃśliṣṭo miśra ucyate lakāraś_ca lakāreṇa|
  miśrāv_iti gakāralakārābhyāṃ pratyekam_abhisaṃbadhyate|
  "*dvandvāt paro yaḥ śrūyata*'' iti nyāyāt| tataś_ca
  prathamāyām_āvṛttau gakārau miśrau sthāpayet| dvitīyāyāṃ
  lakārāv_iti| tato madhye lekhām_apanayet| evaṃ catuḥprakāro
  dvyakṣaraprastāro bhavati| tadyathā--- gau lgau glau lāv_iti||

Everything is clear for me, except the quotation...

Thank you for helping. (Madhav Deshpande asks for a scan, I think that
this passage is enough for the context, and less heavy for the list...)
