No, the bus and the CPU can have different ideas about how memory is layed
out. That's why there is a lot of complexity in the bus_space code. When
Jason was at NASA, he was working with Alphas that have this issue, so he
worked it into bus_space.

And if you have multiple nested busses, it can get REAL messy. :-)

Take care,
