Maybe you could mark them with a vowelless yud.
I.e.:

/buj/ = bet-qubutz yud-shva
/by/ = bet-qubutz yud

Or...

let's see, you have 4 umlauted vowels?
you could use shuruq and hholam-malei, and invent versions of them using
yud instead of vav.

Also a question, is there a reason you made shin /s/ and shin-apostrophe
/S/?  The other way would seem more logical, to me at least.  Or if
possible you could use a superimposed shin/sin for /s/, i.e. |W| with
dots on both sides.
