What function is 0xc00e1a6c in?

Is it possible that you have an SMC device initialized by your firmware 
that is corrupting parameter RAM?

You can't use all of 0x8000-0x8fff; there is device parameter RAM in 
there.  If you can figure out the portions that aren't in use, you can 
use those, but I wouldn't bother unless you really need the extra muram.
