So my workaround for now is to allocate more than I need and correct the
value for IBASE like
	ibase += ibase % 16

Could anyone think of a better solution? Since I waste at least 16 bytes
in the DPRAM.

That's the way I always did it on 8xx.  For 8260, I added a second alignment
parameter to dpram_alloc().  If the address it would return isn't properly
aligned, it will waste sufficient memory behind your back to make this
happen :-)  At least it won't waste any if you align and the sizes are
modulo the alignment.

Where is Wolfgangs m8xx_cpm_dpfree() !?!?

Sitting in my basket of things to do.  I wanted to add the alignment
to the 8xx as well, and this complicates the free function because it
doesn't know alignment was done with the region you may have allocated.
