:Are you perhaps referring to volume 9 of "Current Trends in Linguistics"?  It's an interesting array, although I've noticed that it's far from exhaustive.  Anyways, there is more on the history of /t/ in Hawaiian on Hawaiian language, cf also the TALK page there.  Usually, /ng/ in north-island maori corresponds to /n/ in Hawaiian, not /k/, although it is often realized as /k/ on the south island of NZ, a realization of */ng/ that's only found elsewhere in Polynesia in North Marquesan.
