According to the Motorola docs, the VMEchip2 cannot do D8 
local-bus->VMEbus transfers. It supports D8 in the VMEbus->local-bus 
direction only. 

Note that the docs are ambiguous in a few places, and it looks like when 
I implemented the VMEchip2 driver, I assumed D8 was possible. I'm now 
sure this is not the case...

D16/D32 is selected through bit 7 of the 'Master Control #n' setting. 
When it's zero, D32 is enabled. Else you get D16.

Not possible, I'm afraid.
