Neither of them I believe, as one can easily check by consulting online
versions of their works:
Ulysses: http://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/etext03/ulyss12.txt
A Portrait: http://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/etext03/prtrt11.txt
Dubliners: http://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/etext01/dblnr11.txt
Chamber Music: http://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/etext01/chamu10.txt
Nabokov's English prose is available from http://www.nabokov.tk/
"Finnegans Wake" mentions "sinflowed" though.
