  Comments:
I think sense 2 is always めおと/みょうと. GG5 points to ふうふ because めおと also has the "husband and wife" meaning.
The ok tag is usually used for archaic readings. Sankoku tags both めおと and みょうと as 古風. I think they should be a separate entry.
The vast majority of the 妻夫 counts come from 妻夫木.

The JEs have this is a separate sense, but point to ふうふ.

Maybe a note is best.

The kokogos don't seem to mention anything about the second sense or a restriction to めおと.
