\avm{

  head-dtr [ synsem|loc|cat|comps \1 ]\\
  non-head-dtrs \upshape ! \rel{synsem2signs}(\1) ! ]
}

Punks will work (pun intended) here in any case: 

\avm{
    [ \punk{synsem|loc|cat|comps}{<>}\\
      \punk{head-dtr}{[ synsem|loc|cat|comps \1 ]}\\
    non-head-dtrs & \upshape ! \rel{synsem2signs}(\1) !]\\
}

The issue is that the design of an AVM as having both attributes and values is hard-coded quite deeply into langsci-avm. One problem here is that the preamble of an array and tabular is protected from expansion in LaTeX. Anyway, I'll see in what way it would make sense to make the column specification customisable.

This would be really great. This way of doing things is really deeply entrenched in all brains of avm users. Not just in mine. The reason is that this comes from array or tabular and there it is just normal to use \ and you are in the next line.
