þeirra var eigi við kostur #385

"Síðan riðu þeir að bænum og spurðu, að Kára var eigi við kostur."

"og var þeirra eigi við kostur."

Is the genitive NP the subject in this construction? Or is there an expletive subject?

eirikurr commented 13 years ago

I think the genitive is a possible subject here.
