The default values always start at the address in &FFB7/8.
For instance, on MOS 1.20 &FFB7/8 holds &D940, the contents of &D940+n
is the default value for memory location &200+n, so the contents of
&D940+&36+num-&A6 is the default value for OSBYTE num when num is &A6 to
&FC. OSBYTEs &FD-&FF are set specifically on Reset by the Reset state.
See http://mdfs.net/Docs/Comp/BBC/OS1-20/D940 for how the default value
table is laid out.
