Thanks for the report. Exception 7 is unaligned access, support for
detection of unaligned accesses in QEMU was improved recently.

The exception happens inside OpenBIOS:
0xffd0a55c is in lstore (kernel/forth.c:649).
644
645     static void lstore(void)
646     {
647             const u32 *aaddr = (u32 *)cell2pointer(POP());
648             const u32 longval = POP();
649             write_long(aaddr, longval);
650     }

Maybe write_long should handle unaligned addresses?
