What is fcode-verbose? That's not a standard Open Firmware Forth word,
is it?
There's a "eva-debug?" flag in the Fcode evaluator of SLOF, so that
might be related. You can enable it with:
true to eva-debug?

I think SLOF interprets the values as decimal during setenv (not sure
whether that's correct). Anyway, try:
setenv load-base 0x8000000
